Last year daughter Ruth and I trekked 26 miles for Alzheimers Society in the Lake District but this years trek in the Yorkshire Dales looks even tougher.

For those living with or caring for those with dementia it's a tough daily battle. Alzheimer’s Society are working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. They do this by giving help to those living with dementia today and by providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding ground-breaking research.

Last year you helped me double the £300 target. Can we do it again?

Dare I dream to raise £10 for every year of my age? I'm 65!
