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

My Mum lived independently until the age of 89, 2 years before she died from Vascular Dementia. Her life was one well lived as a Wife, Daughter, Sister, Friend, Aunty, God-Mother, Dog Lover, champion of those who needed help, devoted Grandma and we were proud of her. 

Mum was a volunteer at a hospice well into her 80's and raised lots of money for various charities throughout the years and I feel it's my turn to do something in her memory.   

I've entered the Lake District Challenge to run..stagger..51KM in June 2020, the target of £2018.00 is inspired by the year Mum died and I hope to realise this aim. If you can help, every single pound will make a difference and as below The Alzheimer's Society certainly need it. 

Thank you for visiting this page and considering to support what may prove to be foolhardy. I don't expect to be quick and I expect it to be painful, much like our experience of Vascular Dementia but I do plan to complete the challenge. X 

The 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.
