Alzheimers Wellington was established in 1985 and originally called The Wellington Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Society (Inc) - ADARDS.

We were formed to support families and care-givers; and to educate and inform the public and the medical and helping professions about the problems associated with Alzheimers disease and other dementias.

We are an inclusive non-profit organisation dedicated to making life better for all people in the Wellington region affected by dementia.
