Donations cannot currently be made to this page
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>"Today I will do what others won't, so tomorrow [we] can accomplish what others can't." - Jerry Rice</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Next month&nbsp;a few friends and I will be climbing Vinson Massif (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinson_Massif), the highest peak in Antarctica, and we will also be raising money for an important charity called the Alzheimer's Society</p> <p>If successful, we will have summitted 6 of the 7 highest peaks around the world including Mt Everest in 2008</p> <p>A surprising fact is that 1 in 3 people over 65 will die with dementia. Dementia can be a terrifying, devastating and lonely illness - the Alzheimer's Society is here to ensure that nobody has to go through the experience alone but they need regular donations in order to continue the active role they play in people's lives</p> <p>To provide you with an added incentive to donate, for every donation of at least &pound;500, I will match it up to a total of &pound;2,500</p>
