Dementia Auckland

Community Health Service

Description

Through awareness, education and support, our mission is to help improve the quality of life for those affected by dementia - not only individuals, but also their caregivers, whānau and support networks.

By providing advocacy and access to information that promotes wellness, increases independance and provides reassurance, we want to inspire and nurture a dementia-friendly society, where anyone affected feels supported and prepared for the journey ahead.

We believe that with the most up to date support programmes, improved environments, and connections to community, people affected by dementia can continue to live an enriching and enjoyable life.

Help us make a difference in the lives of those affected by dementia today.
