Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer's Scotland.
We have chosen to raise money for Alzheimer's Scotland as this is a charity very close to our hearts following a recent diagnosis in our family.
Dementia affects the brain, making it harder to remember things or think as clearly as before. It's an umbrella term for over 100 different types of illnesses and disease symptoms. Symptoms of dementia may include memory loss and difficulties with day to day tasks, language and problem solving. Alzheimer Scotland provides information, support and dementia-friendly activities to help make sure nobody faces dementia alone.
We have set ourselves the challenge of 18,000 miles in 24 days. This is a mammoth task, and we require some help from you to get us across the finish line. You can walk, run, cycle, swim or dance your way to the finish line, every mile will count.
All you have to do is make a donation to this page and we will email you with details of how to be part of the challenge and you will receive a specially designed snood as a thank you. If you just wish to make a donation, that is perfectly fine too! We start the challenge on Friday 28th May and finish on Sunday 20th June for Mid Summer.
ZE Run is also taking on a big challenge of seeing how far we can run from Dawn till Dusk on Saturday 5th June. We will be doing this as a relay, so if you are signing up to the challenge, why not give us a hand and clock up a few miles for a good cause on that day!
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for your donation, we are very thankful for your support. Email us to claim your snood & for more information on the challenge at gymgair24@gmail.com
