We're walking in memory of 'Grandad Paul' who lived with vascular dementia in his final years.

We're also remembering his siblings who have endured many years living with Alzheimer's, and all their familiy members and friends who have been impacted by the effects of the disease.

Dementia is the UKs biggest killer. Someone develops it every three minutes, and currently there is no cure.

By 2025, 1 million people will be living with the condition in the UK,
and many millions more carers, partners, families and friends are
affected.

We know it is scary facing up to it, but we must confront the biggest health & social care challenge of our time. After Covid-19, dementia was the leading cause of death in the UK in 2020. We owe it to the 900,000 people across the country currently living with dementia, and their families, to spearhead a campaign for change, whilst providing vital day-to-day support now. By taking part and raising sponsorship, or donating to someone who is, you are helping us do this.

Once you donate, JustGiving sends your money directly to Alzheimer's Society. It's the most efficient way to fundraise, saving time and cutting costs for charities.
