Rhiannon Philp is raising money for Alzheimer's Research UK

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year I am going to attempt to repeat my efforts of 3 years ago, running to raise money for Alzheimer's Research UK.

Back in 2013 I had spent a year running many miles in memory of my Grandma who passed away after many years of suffering with Alzheimer's disease. You were all amazing and helped me raise a huge amount of money to support research into this horrendous disease. I am hoping that you might help me do the same again.

My efforts will kick off with the Cardiff Half Marathon on Sunday 4th Oct, and I hope to add more races as the year progresses.

There is still not cure for Alzheimer's yet, but the vital research that Alzheimer's Research UK do is working towards this becoming a reality.

It is a terrifying disease and one that I truly hope can be extinguished in my lifetime. I would hate to see another loved one go through what my Grandma did, but the likelihood is I will, and I know many others already have.
