Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running my first 10k on Sun 22 May to raise money for Alzheimer's Society (running might be a loose term - this is my first run in over 30 years).

The Alzheimer's Society support anyone affected by dementia and keep people with dementia connected to their lives.  There are over 850,000 people living with dementia in the UK, including my father-in-law, Ted.

I am going to attempt to run the 10k, so that Alzheimer's Society can continue their work and research to support people living with dementia and their families (like ours), this is only possible with your donations. Also to challenge myself, improve my fitness and hopefully lose some weight along the way!

I will be running with my workplace, the staff and students of The Univeristy of Manchester and our aim is to raise £100k for various charities #purplewave  - thanks to Yvonne for sticking with me at the back of the pack for training sessions!
