Dementia Friendly Areas | Dementia Action Grou

About Our Dementia Action Groups

Our Dementia Action Groups bring people together across regions to create communities that understand, include, and support those living with dementia. Guided by the values of community, education, advocacy, support, and wellness, we work collaboratively to build awareness, strengthen connections, and inspire meaningful change. Through monthly meetings, creative programs, and partnerships with local organisations, we promote brain health, share knowledge, and stand beside carers and families. Together, we’re creating a more compassionate, dementia-friendly future for all.

Our Dementia Friendly Areas

Blue Mountains

We meet every month to talk about what our community needs and how we can make things even better. Together, we set goals, share ideas, and take action to create positive change for everyone. Our meetings often include local service providers who share valuable workshops and information to help us all learn and grow. Your feedback means a lot to us — we’d love to hear your thoughts and keep building a stronger, more connected community together.

“Community in action — creating a better future for people living with dementia.”

Blacktown

In Blacktown, we celebrate our diverse and multicultural community, and we understand that dementia touches people in many different ways. Being dementia-friendly means recognising those differences, showing compassion, and ensuring that people living with dementia and their carers can stay connected, valued, and active in community life.
