ATTENTION: DAI members, family, friends, advocates, supporters, and anyone interested in having fun are welcome to join our online event! Join us for soon DAI's 2020 ANNUAL WORLD ROCKS AGAINST DEMENTIA (WRAD) & CAFE LE BRAIN
  • Wednesday, March 25, 2020 (USA/CA/UK/EU)
  • Thursday, March 26, 2020 (AU/NZ/ASIA)

This is one event, set in a number of different time zones, as listed below.

Your hosts are Wally Cox and Alister Robertson

DAI ‘s vision is that all people are valued and included. We also have a strong philosophy that working together makes us all stronger. We believe by doing so, we will achieve more tangible change for all people with dementia and our families.

This includes having fun together!

Through hosting the online WRAD event, we bring the power of music to everyone, and support the global initiatives, the Rock Against Dementia, WRAD, and the Purple Angel.

It is also a chance to destress if you are feeling concerned about COVID-19. Due to the virus, most live events have been cancelled. Thankfully, DAI members are used to online events, so everyone is safe...

Our 2020 WRAD program is almost finalised, and as always, it will be a lot of fun. It incudes some new original performances, written and performed especially for the DAI.

As we have combined it with our montly Cafe Le Brain, there will also be an update about DAI, and lots of time to chat.

Opening and closing live performances are once again by the incredible Graeme Atkins, who supported by his wife, is a wonderful example of living positively, alongside the very real and daily challenges of a diagnosis of dementia. His songs are original, and DAI is grateful to have his friendship and support.
