Around 1 in 6 (18%) people in Australia are living with a disability. This includes as many as 30,000 individuals diagnosed with Young Onset Dementia (YOD).

YOD symptoms appear before age 65, at a time when people are more likely to be physically robust, have young families, be working, and/or have significant financial and caring responsibilities.

In this next highly anticipated edition of Rotary Sydney's Boardroom Dialogues we are going to discuss YOD. Do you have a family member or a friend living with YOD? Join us for this important dialogue.

Date: 6 August, 2024

Time: 12:15 for a 12:30 start, finish at 1:30pm, networking and fellowship from 1:30pm onwards

Location: UBS Meeting rooms, 16th Floor, Chifley Tower
