I got 99 problems and wish Dementia wasn't one

Raising money for Alzheimer's Research UK

Running Down Dementia 2021 · 1 March 2021 to 31 August 2021 ·

Running Down Dementia is a great way to get moving and to keep track of your amazing efforts. With every step you take, youll help fund major breakthroughs in research and give hope to the 34 million people affected by dementia.

Story

Tatiana's gran suffers with Dementia, Liam's nan died of it, and Nina has a family friend who also has it. It's truly awful to see bits of someone you love, and their adulting capacity, gradually disappear.

Covid vaccine development has shown us what science can do when it's well funded, so we signed up to Running Down Dementia 2021 because we want to help Alzheimer's Research UK make breakthroughs in fighting this horrible disease.

This is quite a challenge for Tatiana who is recovering from Long Covid and still can't run, but this will motivate her to ensure she does walk every day to help her rehabilitation and contribute to our team's challenge of 1,450kms by 31 August - even if one km at a time.

One in three people born today will go on to develop dementia in their lifetime, so please help us reach our fundraising target by giving whatever you can using the 'Donate' button. The more people know about Alzheimer's Research UK, the greater their impact, so please spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family.

Thank you , it means a lot! #TeamARUK
