Free wellbeing sessions for people caring for a person living with dementia or memory loss will be available in Northern NSW.
The training will allow people to share strategies for self-care and managing stress in order to take care of themselves.
Workshop organiser Heather Tannock from Social Futures, said caring for someone with dementia can be physically and emotionally draining.
âDementia can cause memory loss, depression, hallucinations, false ideas, and people with dementia can become anxious, agitated or even aggressive,â she said.
âThis can be very difficult for carers and loved ones to manage.
âSessions like these, where we focus on the wellbeing of the carer, are really important.â
