25.01.2022 Today is World Alzheimer's Day. Sadly, everyone knows someone affected by dementia. It's the second leading cause of death for Australians, with almost 500,000 Australians living with the disease. And a further 1.5 million people in Australia are involved in caring for someone with the disease. That's why this Friday we're getting together to raise funds for the often forgotten unsung heroes - the carers of those living with dementia. ... To support us, get your friends and family involved and register as a team to dribble the 2.4km course Melbourne Sports Centres. Afterwards basketball legends including Andrew Gaze, Lanard Copeland and Michele Timms will be running clinics and activities. Plus the newest WNBL team, the Jacyo Southside Flyers will be training. All ages welcome! Register at www.bouncedementia.com.au Every bounce counts!
