The Northern Rivers Younger Onset Dementia Support Group began in November 2023! Our mission is to offer support, resources, and a sense of community to individuals and families affected by younger onset dementia. We meet monthly on the first Friday of each month 10-12noon at Summerland Farm, Alstonville, NSW 2478. Be sure to check our events page for any other events. In addition to our regular meetings, we are committed to organising more activities based on funding and the needs of carers. We’ve organized free lunches and brewery tours, bringing together families, NDIS carers, and people living with younger onset dementia. Plus, there are more exciting events on the way! We regularly feature guest speakers who provide valuable insights and practical advice to help navigate the dementia journey. We are passionate about fostering a caring and supportive environment for everyone involved. What else do we do? We also provide community education and raise awareness through:

presentations to businesses
presentations to government departments
government submissions
radio interviews
newspaper articles
scientific research and publications
educational events
a section in the quarterly newsletter
and much more.

If you’re unsure about joining an event, we’d love to meet you for a casual coffee with one of us from Dementia Inclusive Ballina. It’s a relaxed, one-on-one opportunity to get to know us and see if our events are the right fit for you. And if it doesn’t feel like the right fit, that’s perfectly okay too!
We’d love toconnect and answer any questions you might have!
