People with dementia connecting with peers from their own ethic background

[Athena K]

Hi all….my mother and I live in Melbourne….mum has dementia and is from a Greek speaking background. Although there are services/carers/translators who speak Greek, what’s missing is the opportunity for her to connect with other people living with dementia in her own language. Could anyone offer some suggestions on this??? Even online avenues would suffice.
Thanks so much.
