Dementia Awareness Month is held from 1 September to 30 September nationwide.
The theme for the month is Creating a Dementia-Friendly Nation.
The goal is to encourage Australians to become dementia-aware, have a better understanding of what it is like for a person to live with dementia, and ultimately be encouraged to create communities where people with dementia are supported to live a high quality of life with meaning, purpose and value.
