In December 2025 I am attempting to run the full length of South Korea in memory of my Nan - Eileen Tully, who sadly passed away in 2019 following a 7 year battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
The aim of this run is to help raise awareness for people suffering with Dementia and Alzheimer’s, along with their carers all over the world. In the UK roughly 1 million people suffer from some form Dementia, and in Australia over 400,000 people are affected.
By raising awareness and supporting Alzheimer’s Society, it helps fund research towards the prevention of dementia and support carers, whether they are family, friends, or key workers.
At Alzheimer’s Society they are working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.
They do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future.
