In November I will be running the Dormouse Challenge. A 6 hour event to raise money for a cause very close to my heart.

As you may know I lost my grandad to dementia just prior to my son being born, I've never been a runner but I've decided to take myself out my comfort zone and prove to myself and others that if you put your mind to something you can do it.

My minimum aim is a marathon distance of 26.2 miles but being stubborn I may aim for even more.

Every 3 minutes dementia steals a happily ever after. Research is our only chance of changing the ending for people affected by dementia.

Dementia research are the UK's leading dementia research charity. They exist for a cure.

Your donation helps our scientists and researchers find new ways to diagnose dementia, develop new treatments and find a cure for dementia.
