A portrait of Mrs. Mangel, portrayed by the late Vivean Gray in the iconic Australian soap opera 'Neighbours,' will be auctioned to benefit Dementia Australia. Donated by actress Annie Jones, who played Mrs. Mangel's granddaughter Jane Harris, the auction aims to raise funds for those living with dementia and their caregivers. Jones expressed her deep commitment to supporting dementia initiatives, especially after her own mother's experience with the disease. Dr. Kaele Stokes, Executive Director at Dementia Australia, emphasized the significance of 'Neighbours' in Australian culture and the opportunity for fans to own a piece of its history while contributing to a worthy cause. The auction features a framed portrait signed by several cast members, including Takaya Honda, who is also a Dementia Australia ambassador. Honda noted the importance of community support and encouraged participation in events like the Memory Walk & Jog to foster awareness and solidarity for those affected by dementia. Currently, more than 446,500 Australians live with dementia, a number projected to exceed one million by 2065. The auction will be available on eBay until 9am AEST on May 4, 2026, allowing both domestic and international bidders to participate.
