Alzheimer Scotland offers care, information and support to people with dementia and carers in Scotland. Our services include our 24 hour Freephone Dementia Helpline (0808 808 3000). We believe nobody should face dementia alone.

Story

On the 3rd March 2016, whilst I training for this marathon, my grandmother 'Freda Currie' passed away after a very difficult few years fighting Alzheimer's disease and to help other sufferers as well as their families, I want to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer Scotland because it helps thousands of people across the country. 

This charity helps carers, both professional and non-professional (relatives etc) so deserve help and recognition. 

There are 850,000 people with dementia in the UK, with numbers set to rise to over 1 million by 2025. This will soar to 2 million by 2051.



Please sponsor me and help the 225,000 who will develop dementia this year, that’s one every three minutes.

Thanks, Andy
