Story
On April 27th, 2025, I will be running the London Marathon in memory of Dallas Stone, who courageously fought dementia before passing away two years ago.
I witnessed firsthand the devastating impact dementia has not only on those diagnosed but also on their loved ones. It is a relentless disease that strips away dignity, memories, and ultimately, lives.
In the past couple of years, I have been actively fundraising for the Alzheimer's Society. In 2022, I completed the Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge, and in 2023, I took a leap of faith and skydived. With your generous support, we raised over £1,000 on both occasions.
In honour of Dallas and all those affected by dementia, I am taking on the monumental challenge of running the London Marathon in 2025 to raise funds for the Alzheimer's Society. This organization is dedicated to supporting those living with dementia, funding critical research, and advocating for better care and understanding of this heart-wrenching disease.
My goal is to raise £2,500 for the Alzheimer's Society, and I need your help to achieve it. Your donation, no matter how small, will significantly impact the lives of those battling dementia and their families. It will help fund vital research to find a cure, provide essential support services, and raise awareness about this devastating illness.
Please consider making a donation to my fundraising page. Together, we can honour Dallas's memory and support the fight against dementia. Your generosity will not only power my run but also bring hope to countless families facing this relentless disease.
Thank you from the depths of my heart for your support. Every step I take in this marathon is for Dallas and all those affected by dementia. With your help, we can make a difference and move closer to a world free from dementia.
Let's fight to preserve our memories forever.
With heartfelt gratitude,
