HaysMac's Thames River Challenge for Arts for Dementia

HaysMac team is raising money for Arts for Dementia

Team: Team fundraising for Arts for Dementia

Thames River Challange · 2 May 2026

We develop innovative arts programmes to re-energise and inspire people in the early stages of dementia; we signpost arts events nationwide for people with dementia in the community; and we provide early-stage dementia awareness training for arts facilitators. We focus on what people CAN achieve.

Story

On Saturday 2 May, HaysMac will take part in the Thames River Challenge: a three-leg challenge involving:

🛶 a 9km canoe

🚴‍♀️ followed by a 72km cycle

👟 ending in a 15km walk that finishes at the office

We are raising funds for Arts for Dementia. In their own words "We transform the lives of people living with dementia and those who care for them, through the joy of the arts. Since 2011, we have been delivering and championing artistic activity to profoundly enhance wellbeing, harnessing creative skills that can remain vibrant for years after dementia onset.

We envision a society where people with dementia regularly engage in creative activities, challenges and adventures while enjoying life to the full without stigma."
