London Marathon 2019 · 28 April 2019 ·

Dementia is the biggest health threat facing society. As Charity of the Year for the 2019 Virgin Money London Marathon, Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Research UK are joining forces to lead the charge towards a cure.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year I was diagnosed with a rare gene meaning I will develop early onset Alzheimer’s. I am currently healthy and well,  nothing about me has changed, however everything is different.

I may start to develop symptoms as early as my mid forties meaning my future no longer looks as I had imagined it to be.

So this means I need to live my life a little differently.

 The first challenge I’m setting myself is the London Marathon; through training and running the marathon I want to raise awareness that Dementia isn’t solely an elderly illness. I also want to raise a load of money to aid medical research which will hopefully, one day,  lead to a cure.

Please support me and share my page with as many people as possible. Dementia is such a cruel illness that effects so many people’s lives.

I want make a positive impact from my negative situation. 

Any donation would be gratefully recieved.
