England Squad Raises Dementia Awareness by Playing Without Names
In a powerful move to raise awareness about the memory-robbing effects of dementia, the England men’s national football team took to the pitch against Belgium with an unusual twist - their jerseys were devoid of names during the second half of the friendly match at Wembley Stadium.
This striking gesture was part of the team’s ongoing partnership with the Alzheimer’s Society, aiming to shed light on one of the most commonly associated symptoms of dementia: memory loss.
