Story

We have just celebrated our dad, Maurice Marston, reaching his amazing 90th birthday. While we had a great day with him and our mum, we were unsure of how much he understood of the celebrations because of his vascular dementia, and that’s why we felt we wanted to commit to this challenge to help other families going through similar experiences.

We hope that you will help us to raise awareness and reach our fundraising goal in an effort to help dementia become beatable in the future, so that families can have a happy end of life with their loved ones in their later years.

Alzheimer’s Society is working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. They do this by giving help to those living with dementia today and by providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding ground-breaking research.

By choosing to trek for Alzheimer's Society, together we can give help and hope to everyone affected by dementia.
