Remembering to give

Robyn Hilton and Allison Scifleet may never have become firm friends had it not been for their involvement in fundraising for dementia research. Both women understand what it is like to care for a loved one with dementia. With more than 421,000 Australians living with dementia and no cure (yet), Robyn and Allison are determined to raise awareness in the community and vital funds for research. All while having as much fun as possible!   In this delightful conversation, Robyn and Allison share:  What inspired one woman’s annual tribute to her late husband The serendipitous moment that led the other to QBI The challenges of caring for someone with dementia How bringing dementia out of the shadows helps families How they tackle fundraising fatigue and the flow-on effect of doing good.  Related resources 2024 QBI Lexus Alzheimer's Jazz Gala QBI and Lexus of Brisbane High Tea What is Alzheimer’s disease?  What is dementia? Ultrasound therapy shows promise as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease Dementia Australia
