We’ve shared many experiences over our 20+ years of friendship, but this is a first! This October, we’re running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in support of Arts for Dementia, a cause close to our hearts. For Julie, it’s her first time tackling this distance — in fact, anything beyond 8km. For Anne-Laure, it’s her fourth half marathon, but no less meaningful. Our weekly runs, chatting along the canal on our way to work, are getting a lot longer!

Arts for Dementia is an incredible charity that transforms the lives of people living with dementia and those who care for them, through the joy of the arts. They partner with some amazing organisations such as The English National Ballet, The King's Gallery, The Royal Opera House and Central Saint Martins, to get people with dementia to engage in creative activities, challenges and adventures while enjoying life to the full without stigma.

Your support can make a real difference. If you're able to contribute, we’d be truly grateful.
