Testimonials

Being part of Dementia Foundation has given me the opportunity to do what I care about most — offering compassionate support, advocating for those who often go unheard, and bringing empathy into every moment of care. I believe that every person living with dementia has a story worth honouring and a life that deserves to be lived with dignity and respect. At Dementia Foundation, I work alongside a team that shares this purpose. Together, we create spaces where people feel safe, supported, and valued — where families are never alone, and where kindness guides every step of the journey.

– Preeksha A.
