At New Growth Group, we specialise in supporting individuals living with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). FTD is a progressive neurological condition that primarily affects behaviour, personality, language, and executive functioning. Changes in communication, decision-making, emotional regulation, and daily routines can make everyday life increasingly complex. Our team works closely with participants and families to design practical, stage-appropriate supports tailored to individual strengths. We focus on maintaining independence where possible, creating structure, and supporting families through changing care needs.
