Batten Disease Support and Research Association Australia

Dementia Support Australia (DSA) is here to support our families by providing practical, professional, tailored recommendations and management strategies. The service is free with no referral required. We encourage you to consider if and how this dedicated service might be able to support you in managing the often difficult dementia-related aspects of Batten disease. DSA has trained consultants who understand childhood dementia and its related symptoms, the impacts these have on the individual, and their carers and families. DSA provides professional and practical strategies and recommendations to support families caring for their child, to improve their quality of life. Through its ongoing collaborative partnership with DSA, BDSRA Australia continues to play an instrumental role in providing support and training to consultants to better understand Batten disease and childhood dementia, its impact on affected children, carers and families. To access these services, call the 24/7 service on 1800 699 799 or visit DSA's Childhood Dementia Support page at: https://dementia.com.au/services/childhood-dementia-support
