We successfully launched the Memory Lane Cafe Dementia Support Group in Darwin last week.

On Monday we met at Harry's Place in the suburb of Tiwi, Darwin. We welcomed nearly 30 folks along to talk about dementia, and hear our guest speakers from Dementia Support Australia.

Then on Tuesday we met at the Carers NT Respite Cottage in Howard Springs, south of Darwin. Again good numbers as we were welcomed into the cosy cottage space, set amongst a lush rainforest garden.

A big thank you to the Carers NTCarers NT staff who helped make this visit so much fun, wonderful to be amongst like-minded, compassionate and passionate dementia advocates!

We are back in SA again and are looking forward to welcoming you along to our MLC tomorrow the 18th of November at Hardwicke Bay Progress Association Hall, on the Yorke Peninsula. You will find us there from 10am to 12n, so come and join us, all are welcome

🌸 Port Vincent Memory Lane Café – September 🌸

What a morning! We welcomed 70 guests to the Senior Citizens Club for a full house on a sunny spring day.

Coinciding with Dementia Action Week, we reflected on the theme “Nobody Can Do It Alone” – a reminder that a little help from our community goes a long way toward wellbeing and quality of life.

Lisa shared a letter from Minister Nat Cook, who expressed her support for our program and hopes to attend in the future. Our guest speaker, Glenda Woodward from Country & Outback Health, explained the Care Finder Program, which helps older people access aged care and community supports.

Many attendees shared their challenges with the My Aged Care system, especially the lack of available workers in rural areas. A powerful comment summed it up:
👉 “There is no point giving information if there is no service to support it.”

We remain committed to speaking up on your behalf and pushing for the changes our community needs.

💐A big thank you to Nourished by Jo for our delicious catering!
💐And a big thank you to the Port Vincent Senior Citizens for their assistance!
