Your Giving Day gifts, put to work

Last year's BlueCare Giving Day raised funds for dementia care — and now, resources are in use in communities across Queensland.

Here is some of what your generosity has purchased:

Therapeutic weighted companions

Soft, comforting companions that help ease anxiety and restlessness for people living with dementia.

Multi-sensory engagement tools

Designed to stimulate and soothe, to bring someone into the present moment through sight, sound and touch.

Comprehensive dementia activity kits

Giving staff the tools to create meaningful, joyful engagement every single day.

First Nations dementia support resources

Culturally appropriate materials for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and their families.

Virtual Reality Therapy Headsets

Offering immersive, calming experiences that have shown remarkable results for people living with dementia.

Interactive Projection Systems

Bringing movement, light, and play into residential aged care settings in ways that genuinely delight.

Every item on that list began with support from wonderful people like you. And now it lives in the hands of someone who, even for a moment, feels like themselves again.
