"The White & Yellow Cross Foundation have picked an opportune time to open this service, seeing that the month of September is World Alzheimer's Month," said Minister De Weever
According to Alzheimer's Disease International September 2012 marks the first global World Alzheimer's Month, which is an international campaign to raise awareness and challenge stigma. The theme this year was Dementia: Living together.
"By the White and Yellow Cross providing living spaces during the day and by going into the living spaces of their clients proves that they are living up to the theme, said Minister De Weever."
