Story
My Mum was diagnosed with late stage alzheimers at age 60. Me and my sister have cared for her and kept her out of the hospital / a home , especially during the pandemic. The lockdown has really sped up the disease and I wanted to raise money for a charity that has really helped us. There are many people out there with this disease much younger, and it is under funded.. It is great to raise awareness, and any donation helps to support the families as well as the person with this incurable disease. It is a hard disease to watch somone, especially your Mum go through - which most wont understand until they do go through this. Sadly, it is becoming more common and younger so there is a chance. Help families, help find a cure.
Me and my mate Iain will be doing a skydive on 21st/28th August for the charity - we are paying for our own dives so all money raised will be going straight to charity. We have set it at £1k on this and £200 on instagram. Hopefully we can hit that in a few months. Thanks in advance x

3 years agoHello all , including the £670 from instagram and this total we have got £2999 !!! We have still to add the 10% from t shirts sold which will easily get this over the £3k mark which is amazing !!! Considering our target was 1k we have tripled this. 3 weeks to go. I just want to say thank you to everyone who donated and shared the page you have no idea how much difference you are making for this with the disease , and the families / carers who go through this with them. Honestly thank you from me, and my Mum. Not long now I'll keep u updated

Well done on the jump mate and also to all the awareness you have raised. My sister went to the school your mum worked in and she said she was a great teacher. All the best.
