Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are undertaking the Guatemala Volcano Trek challenge (not for the faint hearted) - summiting five active volcanoes in seven days including Tajumulco, the highest peak in Central America at an incredible 4,220m. 

Our journey starts today with our fundraising challenge of £2500 each although our trek will kick off on the 14th April 2018!

We not only hope to raise our fundraising amount but also raise much-needed awareness about Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia symptoms.Through various events and challenges, we will be documenting our journey on social media for you to keep up to date with our training, the highs and the lows! 

Alzheimer's Research is a charity which we feel very passionate about. In May 2015 our Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and we have struggled to find a positive outlet and contribution we can work together on. This challenge is that and we will be throwing everything we have at raising the cash and getting to the top of the Volcanoes next year! 

Thank you for taking the time to read about our story and hopefully you will follow us on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter (check the links below). Importantly, thank you for any donation you give. As cliched as it sounds, any amount, is truly gratefully received and will go towards the much-needed research this disease needs.  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
