Dementia Advocate Bill Yeates sharing his dementia experience with other advocates in New South Wales.

New South Wales Dementia Advocates Kay Hughes and Bill Yeates took time to share their stories with fellow Advocates in Adelaide as part of Dementia Action Week.

Using a combination of videos, anecdotes and songs, Bill and Kay shared their experiences of dementia and how they've continued to create fulfilling and rewarding lives.

South Australian Dementia Advocate Tina Southall said, “I have never been so inspired by anyone, as I was with Bill Yeates.”

“The music by Kay Hughes, well for once I have no words, unusual for me. Her singing, her words, I feel richer for hearing her.”

Find out more about their project by watching a short video on YouTube.
