A recap of how we marked this year’s World Alzhe

A recap of how we marked this year’s World Alzheimer’s Day! 💜💛

Last Thursday, September 21st, we hosted sessions of Music for Memories with Tony, who surprised us with two special guests (Linda Lovett and John Barritt), and Chair Yoga with Jacqueline, who led us through a relaxing flow. There were snacks and giveaways to make the day even brighter for our long-time participants and those who joined us for the afternoon. The day focused on raising awareness and showing support for our community, and it could not have been better.

Reduce your risk! Many people don’t know that d

Reduce your risk!

Many people don’t know that dementia is not a normal part of ageing. Almost 80% of the general public are concerned about developing dementia, and 1 in 4 people think that there is nothing we can do to prevent it.

Below are six effective strategies for reducing your risk of dementia:

1. Quit smoking.
2. Moderate your alcohol consumption.
3. Schedule regular hearing check-ups and utilise hearing aids when necessary.
4. Take precautions to prevent head injuries (particularly from a young age).
5. Promote education and support healthy lifestyles among children and adults.
6. Improve sleep to improve your mental and physical well-being.

Support groups play a crucial role in the Alzheime

Support groups play a crucial role in the Alzheimer’s and dementia community, offering a lifeline of understanding and connection. According to Alzheimer’s Disease International @alzdisint, they provide a safe space where individuals and caregivers can share experiences, knowledge, and emotional support, fostering resilience and a stronger sense of community.

Our next support group meeting is this Sunday, September 17th, from 4-5pm in person at Peace Lutheran Church and on Zoom using meeting ID: 811 6459 7779 and password: 686 262.

We hope to see you there!
