Support Groups for Care Partners/Whanau

Caring for someone living with dementia can come with its challenges.

Our Carer Support Groups provide a safe space to share your experiences, gain support and confidence.

Our Carers that attend Support Groups find the groups help them feel less isolated, provide emotional and practical support, and are often a welcome break from the caring role.

A great opportunity to make new friends, share experiences and be honest, without fear or embarrassment or judgment.

All our Groups are facilitated by skilled, compassionate, experienced staff.

If you would like to come to a Group please contact a Dementia Advisor who will be able to provide you with the group details and discuss with you which group would best meet your needs.
