Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  I'm taking on my first marathon in 9 years! Not just any marathon either, this one had a couple of hills in it (!) being in the lake district..This is a big challenge for me and my target is to raise some £1000 for the Alzheimers Society.  As many of you know my Dad sadly is very ill with Dementia.  I've put a couple of pictures of him with me on this page - you can see what a fantastic Dad he was, and still is despite his severe illness. The Alzheimers Society does fantastic work not only supporting sufferers and their families but also lobbying government for more funds to ensure these people get the treatment and care they so badly need. 

I would be extremely grateful if you could inspire me to get round the hills of Windermere by sponsoring me!!  Thank you SO much.

p.s. I would also like to raise a small amount for the charity that is organising the race - and have another fundraising page where you can read about them here www.justgiving.com/Caroline-Bailes-Brathay
