Alzheimer’s Research UK is the UK’s leading dementia research charity.

They're working to revolutionise the way we treat, diagnose and prevent dementia.

1 million people in the UK live with dementia.

1 in 3 of us will die with or because of it.

Both my brilliant, inspiring grandfathers had dementia so it is a disease that I have experienced first-hand and seen the horrible, degrading, saddening effects of.

Although the challenge of hiking for 6 days to Machu Picchu drew me to this trip, its the charity we are fundraising for that inspired me most.

Your donations will be going to Alzheimer's Research UK for a cure to this life changing disease.
