Ismail Bell is raising money for Alzheimer's Society

Hackney Half Marathon 2026 · 17 May 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

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

In 2020, I lost my Nan to dementia. Watching her slowly slip away was one of the hardest experiences of my life. It’s a condition that doesn’t just affect the person living with it — it affects every memory, every conversation, every moment a family shares.

This December, I’m running 10k every single day to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society — a charity that supports families like mine and funds vital research to help find better treatments, support and, one day, a cure.

I’ll also be running the Hackney Half in her memory, carrying her spirit with me every step of the way.

If you’re able to donate, share, or simply follow along, it means more than you know.

Thank you for supporting a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart.
