Two plans have different approach to the role of education and risk factors.Research limitations/implicationsLack of information on Russian regional strategies does not allow to compare regional differences between two countries.Originality/valueThis study illustrates several weak points in the UK and Russian dementia policies, which should be addressed to tackle the dementia problem in both countries.
