Support us

Alzheimers Taranaki is a registered charity and has been operating for over 30 years providing support to people throughout the region affected by dementia.

We are governed by a volunteer executive board, employ 15 permanent staff members and 3 casual staff. We also rely heavily on a wonderful team of around 50 volunteers to help run our day programmes and help with fundraisers.  We hold regular monthly carer support groups and social groups around the region, and provide education to the public as well as support to individuals and families. We have a Young Onset service for people diagnosed with dementia under the age of 65 and we run a dementia friendly Book Group with Puke Ariki library.

We are a very busy organisation, with over 700 clients (people living with dementia and their carers/family & whānau) throughout Taranaki. We are getting busier as we live longer and the risk of developing dementia increases with age.

Your donation to our charitable organisation will help to maintain and expand our free service and properly equip us to provide the appropriate resources to allow us to grow and continue to meet the needs of people affected by dementia in our community.
