As many of you are aware, I have lost at least 3 family members to dementia, one of which is still with us, but already feels lost.

It doesn't matter how old you are, the lifestyle you live, or how much money you have in the bank. It can affect ANYONE and EVERYONE.

On the 25th July, I will be running my longest ultra marathon to date, the 68km Davis X-Trails Diamond route in Switzerland. I have self funded the trip and entry. I ask you to kindly sponsor me on this run, to raise money to FIND A CURE! PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES. Once again, the money in the bank won't protect you against dementia, unless it's spent on valuable research to find a cure. So with that in mind, I have set my fund raising target to £100,000, for Alzheimer's Research UK. Together I do believe we can beat this horrible disease.

From Alzheimer's Research UK.
