Dementia Australia

Dementia describes a collection of symptoms that are caused by disorders affecting the brain. It is not one specific disease. Dementia affects thinking, behaviour and the ability to perform everyday tasks.

 Dementia Australia is the source of trusted information, education and support services. We advocate for positive change for people living with dementia, their families and carers, and support vital research. We are here to support people impacted by dementia, and to enable them to live as well as possible.

Your fundraising will directly support those living with dementia, their families and carers. With your support Dementia Australia provides a range of services to the community including:

• National Dementia Helpline where people can talk to caring and experienced professionals;
• Living with Memory Loss programs where people can obtain information and talk confidentially with others in a similar situation;
• Library and information services which provides access to dementia related consumer health information and services;
• Assisting many in time of need with our education seminars, workshops and programs.
