London Marathon 2023 · 23 April 2023 ·

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

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.

NOTE: Any cash donations received I've paid the equivalent amount from my own bank account and credited the donor. Can check through donation history for proof :)

I volunteered to fill a spare place at the London Marathon on behalf of my employer & their charity partner Alzheimer's Society. I'm a very casual runner, beginning my running journey a few years ago, starting with Parkruns, then 10ks, then in 2022 I did the Great North Run. A full marathon is the next step, so why not the biggest of them all?!

I'm not personally affected by this awful disease but I know some of my friends & colleagues whose relatives having this form of dementia. Hopefully my efforts will help towards the support of those with Alzheimer's to live well. 

I feel uncomfortable asking for donations during a cost of living crisis but I'll give it my best go to raise as much as I can. Every donation is appreciated and will count towards this fantastic cause. Every £10 can fund a Dementia advisor on the society's support line for those affected with dementia.
