I will be running the Brighton Marathon on 6th April in aid of the Alzheimer's Society.

Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. Someone develops it every three minutes and there’s currently no cure.

For me, it has affected my beloved grandma. To watch her get worse and worse as time goes on is something hard to watch and difficult to cope with. Not only does it affect me, but it affects my whole family and the amazing carers that are surrounding her 24/7. Seeing her rapid decline in health and mental state has been really troubling. Therefore, supporting a charity that supports research to help prevent and find a cure for this devastating disease is extremely important to me and something that is close to my heart.

1 in 3 people born today will develop dementia.

Thanks to your support, Alzheimer’s Society is facing dementia head on. Whether you’re a fundraiser, donor, partner, or affected by dementia in any way, we’re working with you to build a movement. Inspired by your voices, we’re leading the way in support, society and research.

We are calling on everyone to unite. Working together we know we will achieve our vision - a world without dementia.
