Local Woman To Walk 100km From Wagga To Narrandera For Dementia Awareness Month
For a great cause
This morning on the show, Herbie & Dane were joined by Julie Busuttil, who will walk 100km from Wagga Wagga to Narrandera to raise money for dementia.
It's Dementia Awareness Month and Julie's mother has younger onset dementia. It's a form of dementia diagnosed in people under the age of 65.
The latest figures show that younger onset dementia affects approximately 25,000 Australians. This can be diagnosed as early as people in their 50s, 40s and even their 30s.
