Support that Changes Everything
When younger onset dementia enters your story, it can feel like the world stops spinning. But this chapter doesn’t have to be defined by shadows – there’s a path forward bathed in light and possibility.

Where Understanding Transforms Care
At The Dementia Foundation, we see beyond diagnoses to the vibrant personalities that make each person extraordinary. We celebrate the artist who still finds joy in every brushstroke, the builder whose hands remember every tool, the golfer who cherishes every swing (perfect or not), and the sports fan whose eyes still light up at every Eagles game.
This isn’t just support – it’s a revolution in care. By weaving together cutting-edge research with deep human understanding, we create sanctuaries where life continues to unfold beautifully. In our care, challenges become opportunities for growth, and uncertainty transforms into confidence.
We don’t just support life’s journey – we help write its most meaningful chapters. Through moments of triumph and challenge alike, we stand beside you with unwavering dedication and the expertise to make every day count.
Here, hope isn’t just a promise – it’s woven into every interaction, every decision, and every moment of care. Because at The Dementia Foundation, we believe in creating tomorrows that shine as brightly as yesterdays.

What do some of our strategies look like?
In the intricate dance of dementia care, choosing the right partner changes everything. At The Dementia Foundation, we orchestrate support that transcends ordinary care. Our exceptional team weaves together cutting-edge innovation with profound lived experience, creating symphonies of support that resonate deeply with each person’s needs.
Every person’s story with dementia writes its own unique chapters. We honour this uniqueness by crafting support plans that sing with individual purpose. Like master artisans, we study the subtle threads of your life – your medical journey, past experiences, family bonds, and cultural heritage – weaving them into care that truly speaks to who you are.
This isn’t about following well-worn paths – it’s about blazing trails that lead to your best life. We create solutions that serve your story, not just systems that have always been.
In the ever-shifting landscape of dementia, familiar rhythms become precious anchors. We understand how certain routines and treasured objects can transform moments of uncertainty into harbors of peace.
Whether in your cherished home or our thoughtfully designed spaces, we create environments where comfort flows naturally. Our Supported Independent Living homes are crafted as sanctuaries where environmental cues gently guide and support, creating spaces where life unfolds with grace and purpose.
The language of dementia care speaks through more than words. It flows through gentle gestures, radiates through understanding smiles, and resonates in moments of quiet presence. Our support teams are masters of this delicate art, knowing exactly when to speak, how to listen, and how to turn moments of confusion into opportunities for connection.
When words become challenging, our team’s intuitive understanding shines. Through carefully chosen words, calming tones, and compassionate body language, we transform potential storms into peaceful moments.
Between diagnosis and higher care needs stretches a landscape rich with possibilities. We see these years as precious opportunities to nurture independence and celebrate capabilities. Your voice leads the way in crafting your care plan, while our expertise helps maintain the daily skills that keep you connected to your sense of self.
With gentle guidance, we break down life’s challenges into manageable moments, offering support that empowers rather than overwhelms. At The Dementia Foundation, independence isn’t just maintained – it’s celebrated, creating better outcomes that ripple through every aspect of life.
