DEMENTIA AWARENESS & CAREGIVER SUPPORT
OUR CAUSE
The Singapore Sea Regatta 2026 is proudly dedicating this year’s event to raising awareness for dementia and honoring the caregivers who stand alongside those affected. As Singapore ages, dementia challenges entire families and communities. Through SSR 2026, we aim to spark vital conversations, build empathy, and foster a truly dementia-friendly society.
This edition shines a powerful spotlight on caregivers — the unseen heroes providing daily strength and support. By uniting healthcare institutions, athletes, and the public, SSR 2026 channels the power of sport into social impact. Alongside the races, the festival will feature educational hubs, wellness activations, and meaningful outreach involving seniors from Active Ageing and Dementia Day Care Centres. On and off the water, we row together to ensure no one navigates the dementia journey alone.
