Rementia Together

Reimagining life with dementia

 

5-day retreat for people in the early stages of dementia and their support partner

 

Sydney Retreats

Our Sydney-based 5-day Rementia Together retreats are held regularly throughout the year and designed for people in the early stages of dementia and their support partner.  Accommodating five people and their support partners, the retreats are funded by the Australian Government, meaning accommodation, food and all retreat inclusions are provided at no cost to participants.

Regional Retreat in Berry

We held our very first regional retreat in the beautiful NSW south coast town of Berry in August. Offering the same engaging program as our Sydney retreats, participants stayed in luxury Linnaeus Collection accommodation and were able to enjoy sessions that made the most of the beautiful surrounds whilst connecting in a supportive and caring environment. Details for our next regional retreat will be released soon.

The Rementia Together 5-day retreat will give people living with dementia and their support partner hope beyond their diagnosis fostering a sense of optimism and possibilities for a brighter future.

 

Group Homes Australia welcomes you to a 5-day, live-in retreat designed specifically for people living with dementia. The program, which accommodates five people and their support partners, provides innovative dementia education, shares tools and strategies to help you live well, and the opportunity to connect with others in a supportive and caring environment at the retreat and into the future.

Accommodation, food and all retreat inclusions are at no cost to participants.

This service is funded by the Australian Government and led by Group Homes Australia.
