Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 21st of May I am walking 18 miles from Leeds to Barnsley with colleagues at work. We are raising money for Alzheimer’s something I personally want to support and a charity the bank supports. There is no cure for Alzheimer's disease or any other type of dementia. Here are some figures to get you thinking 1 in 6 people over the age of 80 have dementia. There are 850,000 people with dementia in the UK, with numbers set to rise to over 1 million by 2025. This will soar to 2 million by 2051. 225,000 will develop dementia this year, that’s one every three minutes. Through work I can get each pound donated matched, so please give anything even if it’s a pound! Because unfortunately, at some point you will know someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia and it’s not easy to watch a loved one not be that person anymore.
So I’m off to start some training to get my old woman hips working in time! Please donate what you can!!
