In a week's time my sister and I will be taking on the London Landmarks half-marathon. 

We have just about managed to survive the longer runs (despite the hail and snow!), and now we are starting to panic about / prepare for the big day. We have been so grateful for all the support we've had from friends and family as we have tried to keep up our training, and now we are going for another push with our fundraising efforts. Any support you can give would be hugely appreciated. 

We are running for Dementia Carers Count, a fantastic charity which focuses on the family and friends caring for someone with dementia. DCC provides support, information and tailored courses delivered by healthcare professionals to help anyone caring for someone with dementia develop the skills and confidence they need to help them navigate the highs and lows of caring.

We are running so that we can try to improve the experiences of people caring for someone with dementia. We know through caring for our mum who has dementia how difficult it can be. If we can help families avoid some of the stress and worry that we have gone through over the past nearly 10 years, then every step, (and every blister!) will be worth it.
