What you do today will affect your tomorrow
Few people associate the condition of Dementia with youth. And for good reason; the vast majority of the 245,000 Australians living with the condition are over 50 years of age.
“Protect Your Head” is not just about sports injuries; it’s about drugs and alcohol, healthy living and exercising the brain.
The program is designed to:
- Raising awareness about dementia in the community
- Supporting early intervention
- Encouraging innovation and improving service for people with dementia, their families and carers.
If you live in the Bundaberg region, and interested in participating or learning more about the Protect Your Head program, contact STEPS Bundaberg on (07) 4150 1900 or email bundaberg@stepsgroup.com.au |
