Join ProMed (NZ) Ltd in conjunction with the EMS Trust as they provide a 1 day for Charity First Aid course to fundraise for those living with Dementia in South Canterbury. Dont delay get your employees registered today. A qualified instructor will cover essential First Aid skills and how to take action in an emergency situation. This is an NZQA approved course.
A donation made as a gift ‘in memory of’, is a lovely way to honour and celebrate someone’s life, while helping us to support people living with dementia. You may want to ask for donations to Alzheimers NZ in lieu of flowers at a funeral.
The Alzheimers South Canterbury Fund has been established to help bridge the current service funding gap and maintain this much needed service in our community for all those families to come in the future.
Members are the lifeblood of any organisation.
We need your support in many ways. Your financial assistance and becoming a member provide much needed funding to carry out our work in the community. Members can help shape the work of the Society by becoming involved at our Annual General Meetings – your right to vote depends on being a member.
Members can be advocates for those living with dementia in a world which still has many misconceptions about Alzheimers disease and related disorders.
We cannot support our community without the generous donations and sponsorship from our corporate sponsors.
We appreciate what you have done to help us help the local community of South Canterbury,
THANK YOU!
