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

Two years ago, he ran faster than a rock.

Last year, he was a tad sick on another man's shoe...

This year, it could be a little bit better.

Yep, it's that time of year when I dust off my running shoes and makes promises to myself that I'm going to do 5k every week and then I don't because I'm working or eating pizza or sitting down. Then I get to the starting line, fail to do any form of warm up and run off into the crowd pretending I actually know what I'm doing. Next thing you know I'm being overtaken by a man dressed as the Honey Monster, but I'm at least being given the thumbs up by Clint Boon as he bops on his XFM sponsored float.

So, why not make it worth my while and help me raise money for the Alzheimer's Society.

Now, the science bit. Listen carefully... (See what I did there? I hit those cultural phenomenoms at their peak)

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now. Last year, I managed to raise over £200. Help me get it up to £300 this year.
