I’m hosting a Cuppa to raise funds for all people living with dementia.
🗓 Date: Saturday, 11th October
🕕 Time: 6:30am – 12:00pm
📍 Location: The Common Room Espresso Bar, Rural View
The Common Room has been kind enough to host a special “Cuppa Time for Dementia” Morning Tea to raise funds for Dementia Australia and support those affected by dementia and Alzheimer’s.
This cause is very close to my heart — my Mum is living with Alzheimer’s, and through this event, I want to raise awareness, support vital services, and show carers and families that they are not alone.
Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia, and the leading cause of death for women. More than 421,000 Australians are currently living with dementia, and that number is expected to double by 2054 without a medical breakthrough.
Dementia Australia needs our help!
Come along to enjoy delicious treats, the best coffee in town, and meaningful conversation — all for a great cause. Every dollar raised will go directly to Dementia Australia, helping them continue their vital work in support, education, and research.
F45 North Mackay will be helping to raise funds in the lead up to the morning tea at the studio. Everyone who trains on 11th October class will be encouraged to wear purple to the session and then pop past the Common Room for those post workout cafination and refuel needs and make a donation.
💜 Wear purple on the day to show your support — purple is the official colour of dementia awareness.
The support received from the community to get behind this important cause has been overwhelming.
Special thanks to The Common Room and F45 for all your support, genuine care and compassion to advocate for Dementia Australia.
All donations will be processed via a QR code or this link which will bring you to the fundraising page.
Your donation will help Dementia Australia:
- Provide a 24 hour support line
- Offer counselling services
- Create and provide important information about dementia
- Help people plan their nexts after a diagnosis
- Fund much needed research into prevention, treatments, and a cure.
Let’s come together, share support, and make a difference. 💜
