COMPASSION

with reverence in order to give it true value.

Dementia currently affects 35 million people worldwide and the incidence is expected to double every 20 years. Estimates are as high as 135 million by 2050 as the older population continues to grow. 

However, many governments, communities, businesses and families, as well as the health and long term care sectors are unprepared for this epidemic.
