Story
Firstly, thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page!
On the 2nd of May 2010 we will be heading to the capital to run the Great Edinburgh Run on behalf of Alzheimer Scotland. We will be running 10km around what is regarded as one of the world’s most scenic road runs. This year, the Bupa Great Edinburgh Run begins at Holyrood Park and we will be crossing the forecourt of the historic Palace of Holyroodhouse by permission of Her Majesty The Queen.
Shortly after, on the 23rd of May, we will atempt to run another 10km for the Baker Hughes 10k also on behalf of Alzheimer Scotland.
Alzheimer Scotland is Scotland’s leading specialist dementia charity and works to improve the lives of everyone affected by dementia. They provide information, support and a network of services and support groups from more than 60 sites around Scotland. They also campaign to improve public policies and services for people with dementia and their carers.
The money raised is going to a great cause and your support is very much appreciated so if you can find a way to dig deep and support this amazing charity then not only will we be grateful but you will ultimately make a difference to thousands of people's lives.
