<p>Many thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page! As some of you will know, I am ascending the three highest peaks in the UK - Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon on consecutive days from 17th September 2011.</p> <p>The only thing which makes the pain of that experience (and the preparation for it!) worthwhile is the opportunity to raise some cash for a very worthy charity.</p> <p>My partner Lexi's mother, Denise, has had Alzheimers for 8 years, and Lexi is actively involved in her care. I see for myself how stressful and upsetting the disease is for sufferer and carer alike. However, I also see how much&nbsp;more positive&nbsp;it is for both if third parties&nbsp;share&nbsp;insight and understanding of the disease, and provide events and occasional respite.</p> <p>The charity I have chosen focusses equally on the sufferer and those who provide the direct, day-to-day support and care, many of whom are themselves elderly.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.</p> <p>I am very grateful for all your donations and they will give me an extra spring in my step along the three peaks!</p> <p>Adam</p>
