The Sandford Brothers: 26 Miles for Alzheimer’s Research

Raising money for Alzheimer's Research UK

Paris Marathon 2026 · 12 April 2026 ·

Story

Last year, Ed and I ran the Paris Marathon for the challenge. This year, it’s myself, Ed and Robbie taking it on again — but this time we’re running in memory of our grandparents, Geoffrey and Joyce Seddon.

Our grandparents lived with dementia in their later years. Seeing how dementia affected them, and the impact it had on our family and everyone who loved them, really brought home what a life-changing condition it is. That’s why we’ve chosen to support Alzheimer’s Research UK on this journey.

Every 3 minutes, dementia changes someone’s story. But with research, there’s hope. Alzheimer’s Research UK is the UK’s leading dementia research charity, funding vital work to improve diagnosis, develop new treatments, and bring us closer to a cure.

By supporting Alzheimer’s Research UK, you’ll be helping to make every mile we run count — not just for us, but for every family affected by dementia. Whether you can donate or just share our page, it’ll mean a lot.

Come April 2026, we’ll be leaving it all out there on the streets of Paris. Any support, big or small, would mean the world.

Big love,

Will, Ed & Robbie
