Sponsored 24 Hour Sportathon in MacLeod House in Durham School · 6 February 2026

At Alzheimer’s Society we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding groundbreaking research.

Story

The girls of MacLeod House are taking on a 24-hour endurance challenge to raise money for their chosen charity, Alzheimer’s Society.

Over a full 24-hour period, they will be running, rowing and cycling continuously, working together in relays to keep the machines moving non-stop. This challenge is not only a test of physical endurance, but also of teamwork, resilience and commitment to a cause that affects so many families.

Alzheimer’s Society plays a vital role in supporting people living with dementia, funding life-changing research, and providing help, guidance and hope to families and carers. Dementia touches millions of lives, and the work of this charity makes a real and lasting difference.

We would be incredibly grateful for the support of families, friends and the wider MacLeod House community. Every donation, no matter the size, will help motivate the girls through this challenge and contribute to the important work of Alzheimer’s Society.

Thank you so much for your generosity and encouragement
