Understanding Dementia guide
The Understanding dementia guide is designed for people who have been given a diagnosis of dementia and for their friends and families.
It is designed to be a helpful starting point for you to get to know a little bit more about the condition and to help you access support, specifically in the Ku-ring-gai Council area.
