Keep your brain ticking

When it comes to keeping a healthy mind, it’s very much “use it or lose it” – so keep your brain active to reduce your risk of developing dementia.

Some evidence suggests that formal education can lower the risk too. Even as an adult, learning a new language or starting a short course may make your brain more resilient, and reduce your risk of cognitive decline in later life.

While enrolling in a formal course can be beneficial, free options like language-learning apps or picking up a book from your local library can also help. If you want to develop a new skill or learn a musical instrument there is lots of free tuition on YouTube.
