Event: Virtual Edinburgh Marathon Festival Full Marathon 2021, on 30 May 2021
Welcome to #TeamAlzScot! Together we can make sure nobody faces dementia alone.

Story

Inverness, Aberdeen, Dundee, Stirling, Perth, Glasgow & Edinburgh. On the week beginning 24th of May I will be running a marathon everyday for 7 days (one in each city in Scotland and finishing with the Edinburgh marathon festival on the Sunday) 

I am running the 183.5 miles in a week for Alzheimer Scotland to help them ensure that nobody faces dementia alone! Estimates put the number of people living with dementia in Scotland at over 90,000 and it is predicted that this number will continue to significantly increase in the coming years. Sadly, there is no current cure for dementia and only a few forms of drug treatments are available, that is why Alzheimer Scotland aim to provide as much support as possible to people living with dementia, and their families and carers. Alzheimer Scotland offers care, information and support to people with dementia and carers in Scotland. Their services include a 24 hour Freephone Dementia Helpline (0808 808 3000), Dementia Advisors, Dementia Nurses and medical research.

Thank you for your support, it is greatly valued and very much appreciated.
