Ultra X Jordan · 2 October 2023

BRACE funds world-class clinical and laboratory research into dementia to find better treatments, achieve earlier diagnosis, and, one day, find a cure. We do this by funding PhD studentships, early-stage pilot projects, and the South West Dementia Brain Bank. Together we will defeat dementia.

Story

In October 2023, Mike and Bren will be running a 5-day Ultramarathon, covering a distance of 230+km across the spectacular backdrop of the Wadi Rum Desert, Jordan.

This will throw us into a completely unknown environment, promising to test our physical endurance and mental fortitude, whilst tackling long distances across the harsh desert, sand dunes, rocky terrains all in extreme temperatures.

This race isn’t just about personal achievement, it is also an opportunity to make a positive impact for a great cause.

Having both been impacted by Dementia within our families and experiencing the devastating impact it leaves, we’ve decided to raise some money for the Brace Vascular Dementia charity.

Brace is passionate about defeating dementia and one day scientists could develop a life changing medication or vaccine.

Any donations will be hugely appreciated and will help improve the lives of people with dementia and ultimately find a cure for this debilitating condition.
