Based on research by Dr Joyce Siette, Brain Boot Camp will actively promote dementia awareness and equip older adults with the knowledge, skills and empowerment to make changes in their own lives and adopt a holistic approach to reducing their risk of dementia.
This project focuses on implementing small and realistic changes to older adults' daily routine that will improve their brain health and reduce their risk of dementia.
Dr Siette’s research is evidence that age is not the only predictor of declining mental capacity. There are many other risk factors such as social isolation, dietary choices and physical activity levels that all play a major role in brain function. Almost 50% of dementia cases are influenced by lifestyle factors.
