What is Dementia Friends MALAYSIA
A member of Dementia Friends MALAYSIA learns a little bit more about what it’s like to live with dementia and then turns that understanding into action – anyone of any age can be a Dementia Friend. Dementia Friends MALAYSIA is about learning more about dementia and the small ways you can help. From telling friends about Dementia Friends MALAYSIA to visiting someone you know living with dementia, every action counts.
