A prospective cohort study in Britain suggests that participation in leisure activities declines in the preclinical phase of dementia. The study included 8,280 participants (69% male, 91% white, mean age 55.8), participation in leisure activities (1997–99 assessment), with 18.0-year follow-up, was not associated with dementia (hazard ratio [HR] 0.92) but those with higher participation at mean age 65.7 (2007–09 assessment) were less likely to develop dementia with 8.3-year follow-up (HR 0.82). No specific type of leisure activity was consistently associated with dementia risk. Decline in participation between 1997–99 and 2007–09 was associated with subsequent dementia risk.
