Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm running with my friend Ravi in memory of his grandfather. Both my dad and Ravi's grandfather were in the same hospital recovering from a stroke. The stroke changed both mine and my families life so I understand how much pain Ravi went through during this difficult time. My dad is now thankfully recovering from the stroke however Ravi's grandfather was diagnosed with Dementia which ultimately contributed to his death.
Now Ravi is by no means a endurance athlete (sorry buddy!) so this is a massive challenge for him and I have the honour of running alongside him! So i'd like to reach out to all my friends (from school, work, life, Jiu jitsu etc) to help me and Ravi raise some money and awareness for this awesome cause. Please donate generously.
Please also take some time to read Ravi's story:
"I am running the British 10k event in central London on July the 13 in memory of my grandfather. As many of you know I’m not in shape lol. That’s why it’s a big deal for me and a big challenge. The charity I am donating to is Alzhemier’s Research UK. Alzheimer’s Research UK is the UK’s leading dementia research charity. As research experts, they specialise in funding world-class, pioneering projects at leading universities to find preventions, treatments and a cure for dementia. It is all for a good cause. I know it’s a personal charity for me because of my grandfather but this money can go towards helping people prevent and even cure the effects of dementia. In the future someone else’s grandparent or even parent could be saved with this research and would not have to go through the same hardship my granddad did and my family did when we lost him. Please give what you can."
