Alzheimer's Society - Trek Kilimanjaro 2012 · 2 February 2012 ·

At Alzheimer’s Society we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding groundbreaking research.

Story

<p>Thank you for visiting my page.</p> <p>YES, I have done it. I have been to the highest point of Africa. I have conquered Kilimanjaro at 5895 M.</p> <p>It has been hard, very hard and I have had to push my limits, both physically and mentally, a lot further than i thought it would be possible.</p> <p>So, if you think my effort is worth it, please sponsor me... there is still time...Every pound make a difference...</p> <p>There are about 700,000 people in the UK with dementia already and the numbers are increasing. Younger people are affected by this disease. 1 in 3 people over 65 will die with dementia.&nbsp;It's a scary stat.&nbsp;The funds collected will help the Society to continue its work&nbsp;to provide information and support to families affected by this disease&nbsp;but also to continue its search for a cure.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It&rsquo;s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Alzheimer's Society gets your money faster and, if you&rsquo;re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.<br>So please sponsor me now!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
