This may come as a shock to many people that know me well, but I am so proud (and slightly nervous) to say that I’m going to be running the London Marathon 2022 to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society.

Me and my family were devastated last year when my Grandad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Unfortunately, after catching Covid in the summer his condition has deteriorated much quicker than we expected.

Alzheimer’s Society provide support and advice to those affected by dementia and also fund over £10million a year of research projects to help improve care for those with dementia and work towards a cure.

I will be spending the next 10 months training for the biggest challenge of my life but I couldn’t be more proud to be doing this for my grandad! Please sponsor me if you can, any donation large or small will help me reach my goal of raising £2,000.

I will be posting updates about my training on my social media channels to keep everyone updated on my journey to becoming a marathon runner! Thank you so much for your support.
