The New Zealand Dementia Foundation
A new chapter for the NZ Dementia Cooperative
We are now the New Zealand Dementia Foundation. Our heart stays the same, but our message is clearer: Bringing dementia into focus by supporting the dementia workforce to do their best work.
We have so much for you to explore here on our new home - come on in.
The chair of the Foundation, Matthew Croucher, has made a brief video to welcome you
We would like to say a special thank you to Netpotential and Choir for supporting our beautiful new look, and to Summerset for their valued ongoing support.
