Australian pop duo The Veronicas were recently named ambassadors for Dementia Australia, after putting their music on hold last year to spend more time with their mother. After four years of misdiagnoses, their mother was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Their goal is to use their platform and their mother’s story to break down the stigma and shame surrounding dementia, and to build a social movement to advance community awareness.
