The aims of this session are to provide an understanding of how the memory works and how the memory changes through normal ageing and dementia.

We have different types of memory and these change as we age but dementia is not a normal part of getting older. Instead, dementia is a term used to describe a large number of complex disease states that damage the brain and impair functioning. Afternoon tea will be available after the session.

Counselling sessions are availble on the day - please call 6255 0722 to book a time for an appointment.

RSVP essential - please phone 6255 0722.
