Welcome to our Just Giving fundraising page! We are running the 2020 EMF 5k for Alzheimer Scotland in order to raise as much money as possible for this incredible charity.
As you may know my dad, Josh's Dziadek (Grandad), Marek suffered from early onset frontotemporal dementia. A cruel and disease that strips families of their loved ones. After Marek's initial diagnosis there seemed to be little help or support around until I got in-touch with Alzheimer Scotland. 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.
This charity desperately needs more funds to increase the care and help they can offer as well as striving to find a cure. Every penny counts towards their goal of making sure nobody should face dementia alone.
We would be so grateful if you could take the time to sponsor us to help the cause and to motivate us in our training! Alzheimer's provided advice and support when there seemed to little help out there.
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
