Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Anyone who's been affected by Alzheimers / Dementia will know what a cruel disease this is. Some say the family and friends suffer just as much as the sufferer because of the amount of care required as the condition advances.

My Dad was lucky to have my Mum to look after him for as long as she could and he was then lucky enough to go into a care home where the staff were kind, patient and understanding, not just of his condition, but what my Mum was going through. These guys at the Brooklands Nursing home really are unsung heroes in my eyes.

Dementia slowly robbed my Dad of his intellect and personality and it's about time we all pulled together to try to stop others like him from suffering the same fate.

With people living longer by the generation, Dementia is set to become the biggest epidemic of our time.
