I'll be running Brighton Marathon to support my local community.

I think the Alzheimer's Society is an incredibly important organisation to support. One in three people today will develop dementia in their lifetime and nearly a million people are currently living with dementia in the UK. A timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial to accessing treatment and support that can help people manage dementia symptoms and avoid ending up in crisis.

Locally, the Alzheimer's Society host a range of activities in our area, including a local dementia forum that enables those living with dementia to make friends, share experiences, influence change and make a difference to attitudes and communities.

I am running the Brighton Marathon to spotlight the charity and all the work they do. I would be grateful for any support or donation you can offer.
