Moving for Brain Health | Petrusville, Free State

Free State brought the energy to Petrusville!

Older adults came together for a fun-filled day of dementia and Alzheimer’s awareness, learning more about brain health while enjoying movement, music, and dance.

Because staying active, connected, informed, and having fun can all be part of living well and supporting brain health.

Empowering Caregivers Through Dementia Awareness

In September, ADASA Western Cape Social Worker Priscilla Abrahams presented a dementia awareness session for the ladies of the Moravian Church. The session focused not only on understanding dementia, but also on the importance of caring for the caregiver.

Through meaningful discussions, shared experiences, and practical guidance, attendees learned how to better support loved ones living with dementia while also protecting their own wellbeing. Many left feeling empowered, supported, and reassured that they are not alone on this journey.

Thank you to everyone who attended and to the organisers for creating a safe space for learning, support, and connection. 💜

As World Alzheimer’s Month comes to an end, we want to give a heartfelt shout-out to BokRadio for standing with ADASA and helping us keep the conversation about dementia going.

World Alzheimer’s Month may be ending, but awareness, understanding and meaningful connections should continue all year round.

Thank you for opening the airwaves, sharing information and helping us reach communities with the message that Memories Matter.

We look forward to strengthening this relationship and building even more meaningful collaborations in the future. Together, we can continue turning awareness into action and making dementia a conversation that never stops. 💜

Thank you, BokRadio, for being part of the journey.
