Thank you so much for visiting my JustGiving page.

I’m fundraising for the Lewy Body Society – the only UK charity dedicated exclusively to Lewy body dementia.

Lewy body dementia is often called “the most common type of dementia you’ve never heard of.” It’s the second most common form of neurodegenerative dementia after Alzheimer’s, yet it remains widely misunderstood and frequently misdiagnosed. It affects thinking, memory, movement, sleep and behaviour, and can bring particularly challenging symptoms such as visual hallucinations and fluctuating alertness. No one should have to face it alone.

This is a cause close to my heart. I’ve seen the impact Lewy body dementia can have, and it has shown me how little awareness and support there still is – and how vital organisations like the Lewy Body Society are.

The Lewy Body Society does three crucial things:

• Funds vital research into better diagnosis, treatment and, one day, a cure

• Raises awareness among the public, medical professionals and policymakers

• Provides information and support for people living with the disease, their families and carers

Every donation, no matter how small, helps them continue this important work. Together we can shine a brighter light on Lewy body dementia and make a real difference for the thousands of people and families affected.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support – it means the world.

With gratitude,

Dan.
