Who is
Dementia Australia
We are Australia's national peak body for people impacted by dementia. Your support helps fund critical services to create an inclusive and supportive world. Help us create a Dementia-Friendly Future.
Our impact
We give with dementia the respect they deserve and the support the need.
We represent an estimated 421,000 Australians living with dementia and the almost 1.6 million Australians involved in their care. Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia and there is no cure. Which is why we need your support.
All funds raised through Cuppa Time for Dementia goes to our work in information, education, and support services such as individual counselling and group therapy sessions.
Together, we’re on a mission to find treatments, slow the progression, improve diagnosis and ultimately cure dementia.
Cuppa Time for Dementia is about community. It's brings us together to celebration connection, honour loved ones, and support everyone going through their dementia journey.
