Story

Grandad, Gramps, Grandad Jim!

Our much loved Grandad left us at the end of last year and we wanted to find a way to remember him and raise money for the charity that research into, and support sufferers, of the specific type of dementia he endured in his final years. 

A physical challenge seemed the most appropriate for our always active, PT instructor, ballroom dancing, grandad, so here we are, all of his grandchildren and our partners, signed up for the Worthing 10k run on 5th June. 

Grandad would have loved the thought of us all being together and running for such a good cause. With varying degrees of fitness it could be an interesting team performance on the day!

Team Jog for Jim is Adam, Alice, Becky, Conor, Elliot, Emily, Michael, Oliver, Paul, Rachael, Rachael and Tom. 

If you can support us by making a donation to The Lewis Body Society it will spur us on to the finish line!
