Dementia Awareness week is a national awareness-raising campaign that challenges common misconceptions about dementia.
Dementia is a collection of symptoms caused by disorder in the brain and affects cognition, memory, and behaviour. It presents differently for each person and impacts almost half a million Australians.
This year's theme is ‘a little support can make a big difference.’
