NeuRA Giving Day, 26 August 2026 — double your impact

Why Tim and Megan are backing Giving Day

“You can live a happy and healthy life to an extent with dementia. It shouldn’t be a diagnosis that’s like an, ‘All right. Well, that’s that. That’s the end,’ type of approach... The more society is educated, the more it will help our situation. It’s far from an easy journey.

I wouldn’t want anybody to be going through it. But there’s lots you can do to help make the journey easier.”

When Tim’s behaviour began changing at 38, Megan knew something was wrong. It took four years to find specialists who listened and a diagnosis that explained what their family was facing.

They support NeuRA because research can improve understanding, earlier diagnosis and care, so families can make better decisions sooner.
