09.01.2022 The University of Sydney is leading a national survey aimed at investigating the impact the recent COVID-19 outbreak has had on the life and wellbeing of people living with dementia and their care partners. The study is conducted as part of the StepUp for Dementia Research program led by Professor Yun-Hee Jeon, with the support of Champion Organisations like us. If you would like to find more about StepUp for Dementia Research, please visit their website www.stepupfordementi...aresearch.org.au or call 1800-STEP-123 (1800-7837-123) Participation in the study is completely voluntary and involves the completion of an anonymous survey which takes around 10-15 minutes to complete. The survey can either be accessed online or can be conducted over the phone (1800-7837-123 Monday to Friday). The online survey is here: https://redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys/?s=KKYTFRY9PN.

09.01.2022 When a person you love is diagnosed with dementia, everything changes. Your hopes and dreams for the future need to be reconsidered. And you face the prospect of becoming a carer for many years. SECC recognises the challenges in caring for someone with dementia, and has provided The Cottage Day Centre for this purpose. The person with dementia can participate in the day program while their carer receives much-needed respite.... Watch this video to find out more. See more

05.01.2022 "I was up early and had to say goodbye to Mum and Dad. I didn't know if I'd ever see them again. It was quite an emotional time..." Richard Trevor Martin fought in WWII with the RAAF and this video was shown at a recent memorial of his life in Sunnybank, Queensland. He was farewelled with full honours, a solemn trumpeter and nip of scotch.... Dick was a local, attending Rainbow Street Public School, regularly walking from Randwick to the airport as a pre-teen... then receiving a draft letter in the mail that he'd never forget. Have your tissues ready for this moving interview with local hero Dick Martin, sharing his story at the age of 96.
