Dementia Action Week

Advocates have been sharing their stories for Dementia Action Week and how a little support has made a big difference in their lives. Sandra Timmons from regional Victoria, Bill Yeates from Sydney and Jack Ellis from Darwin gave their time and energy to be filmed for this year’s TV commercials which will go to air next week. 

Ann Lord and John Quinn gave their thoughts and insights into what makes a Dementia-Friendly Community as part of the policy paper Dismantling Dementia Discrimination: It starts before the diagnosis.
