Machu Picchu Trek · 10 August 2024

Loughborough Students' Union Rag are partnering with Alzheimer's Research UK for the brand new Machu Picchu Trek taking place in August 2024. It will be a challenging multi-day expedition, reaching altitudes of over 4,600m

Story

In August, I will be undertaking the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu. Over 6 days, the team and I will cover over 70km and reach heights up to 15,000ft, making it no easy challenge!

However this is not just an adventure, it’s a mission to support Alzheimer’s Research UK, a charity committed to pioneering research against dementia.

£3 A MONTH could help pay for a sensitive brain scan for a person involved in a research study, tracking the effectiveness of new drug treatments.

£5 A MONTH could assist scientists developing a blood test to help detect the disease in its earliest stages.

£7 A MONTH could help fund a chemical kit to help scientists detect and study rogue dementia proteins in the brain.

A pound or a penny, every donation helps. Together, we can find a cure🧡
