Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon 2023 · 14 May 2023 ·

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

I'm running the Leeds marathon inspired by Rob Burrows, his family and his rugby family. Kevin Sinfield has worked amazingly hard to raise awareness for MND and the Leeds hospital charities. He advocates running for a mate or running with a mate, showing the power of doing it together and supporting each other #runforrob #runforamatewithamate

I am not only running for Rob I am running for Mam... although the Leeds Marathon is primarily supporting MND it is also an inclusive community event recognising everyone has their own fight and encourages supporting all charities... 

Alzheimer’s Society has played a part for me personally and has provided me with information and advice to help me and my family on the journey. They do incredible work raising awareness, educating and supporting everyone affected by this frightening and incurable disease, I am grateful for this community and network to help me.

Alzheimer’s Society is transforming the landscape of dementia forever. Until the day we find a cure, we will create a society where those affected by dementia are supported and accepted, able to live in their community without fear or prejudice.

Wish me luck! 💙
