Story

It all started in 2019 when Bramble Patch began their support of the Alzheimer's Society and we have been thrilled with the support our customers have given us. We know it has touched many of your hearts and we thank you for your support and sharing your stories and loved ones with us.

We ran the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2019 in March, the London Marathon 2019 in April and the Great North Run 2019 in September - phew! And through your generosity we have raised a staggering £3,410.00 - we are so grateful.

To thank you for your generous donations we hope that you’ve enjoyed the unique quilts we designed - “Quilt Down Memory Lane" & “Heart Full of Memories”. And for your fabulous donations in 2020 have raised a further 2,032. And for you donation I committed to run for you again & I signed up for another London Landmarks Half Marathon in March 2020. But 2020 had other ideas and like all our plans it was put on hold and I’m waiting to run again in May 2021.

Unfortunately dementia does not wait! The charity has been tragically struck by the lack of fundraising events in 2020 and the need for money to fight this horrendous disease is even more critical. The circumstances of 2020 have been extremely damaging for those suffering dementia and those who love them.

So, let’s do it again,
and for you very generous donation - which we are extremely grateful for - we bring you “Reflections”, another fabulous quilt for you to create.

And why? Because without your donations I can’t run & without runners entering these events the charity can’t fight the battle.
