Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This autumn I am running a northern double header - the Great North Run and the Yorkshire Marathon - to raise funds for Dementia UK in memory of our neighbour, Dawn Forbes, who suffered with early onset dementia for a number of years before she died.

The Dementia UK charity provided valuable support to Dawn. The charity is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is here for the whole family. Their nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, life-changing support and advice to anyone affected by dementia.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
