Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This October (1st -10th) i'll be taking on the challenge of trekking the Annapurna region of the Himalayas - The highlight being to summit Poon Hill at 3210m. This will be a big challenge for me in many ways, but i'm excited to face the heights and blisters for such a great charity!

After working for 12 weeks in a Dementia assessment unit (as part of my University course) I felt i finally understood the effects of dementia on not only the individual with dementia but also the families of those people.  The Alzheimer's Society do great work in supporting individuals with dementia and their families; from telephone advice, to support groups and clinical research. 

I hope that by taking part in this trek that i can do my part to raise awareness for the Alzheimer's society and help people with dementia and their families live well and supported.
