Support groups are places where people can meet in a safe environment to express their feelings and fears, and can get support, advice and guidance from others who know what it feels like to care for someone with dementia. Having any illness can be very isolating and you may feel very alone. Support groups help ease the pain and offer you a place where people really understand you and what you are going through.
Dementia SA provides a high standard of support, counselling, awareness and education, and a resource centre.
