Story

We are two brothers who's papa has dementia and is in a care home. Since we can not see him we decided to start a fundraiser to help find a cure for dementia. We have set ourselves a challenge to both run 100 miles in April during the Lockdown.  We will record our daily  miles and give updates on Facebook.

We would be so thankful if you could support us in this challenge by donating through this page.  Even £1 will make a difference. Dementia is such a horrid disease and we'd like to help in this small way to towards finding  a cure. 

Finally, we are also going to be entering the 'Race at Your Pace' Challenge and so we are giving to the National Emergencies Trust Coronavirus Appeal too. 

Thank you so much, wish us luck :)
