How good do these two look together!! What a great catch up this week in Adelaide for our Family Carer, Health and Wellbeing monthly forum. There was an air of excitement as we gifted the first of our brand new journals to participants attending as part of the series. (A total of 45 to give away) The mugs are our program stock to remind family members each month to enjoy the moment together that they've carved out for themselves.

Both the journal and mug (with 5 different wordings) are available for purchase through: https://www.dementiadoulas.org.au/store

If you or someone you know is in SA and would like to join our monthly wellbeing forums, just follow the link to register:

This is the final live Dementia Doula Program for 2025. This year has been extraordinary, full of courage, tenderness, grief, laughter, and the kind of connection that changes us and the families we walk beside.

If you’ve been thinking about joining this journey, this is your last chance for 2025. Be the space where families are seen not just as 'carers,' but as humans with stories, hopes, and identities of their own.

If you want to step into 2026 ready to be part of the long awaited change, then this is the place to begin.
