Dementia Friendship Carer Group
A free community group run by Orana for current and former Carers of a loved one living with Dementia. Talking with others over a cuppa can sometimes be a relief and give us the encouragement and confidence to keep going.
To know that we’re not alone on this journey and there are others we can talk to can make all the difference. We share the common experience of caring for a family member with dementia, whether that is a partner, parent or sibling.
Meetings are held at the Sutherland Community Centre on the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 10:00am-12:00pm.
