Welcome to Trust Talks, the podcast that explores the intersection of estate planning and the impact of dementia, one of the most urgent health and social challenges of our time.

In Italy, dementia is a deeply affecting reality: it is estimated that one in three people born today may develop this condition over the course of their lives. This statistic reminds us of the crucial need to act with innovative solutions and the proper support for those who live with this disease every day, as well as for the families affected by it.

Across our country, associations, doctors, researchers, and caregivers are continuously committed to providing assistance, promoting cutting-edge research, and raising public awareness about the importance of prioritizing dementia. A leading role is also played by legacy gifts—donations made through a valid will—which help fund a significant portion of support services and research. These contributions directly improve the quality of life and lay the groundwork for future treatments.

In this podcast, we will explore together how the world of trusts and estate planning can be an essential tool not only for protecting our loved ones, but also for supporting initiatives that truly make a difference in the fight against dementia. It’s a journey of information, dialogue, and inspiration—because only by uniting our efforts can we hope for a future in which dementia no longer devastates lives.
