Story

I’ve just signed up to do my fourth 50km memory walk again this year on Saturday 9th September 2023. 

This is a charity very close to our hearts, we watched our beautiful mummy/wife Briege fight this terrible illness for 5years. Unfortunately on 3rd May 2022,  we were all with her when she sadly passed away, our hearts will be forever broken as our family chain is broken. We know that mummy will be with us every step of the way

This year there will be the option to do 30km/40km or 50km, we would like as many friends and family to join us for some of it.

Dementia is the UKs biggest killer. Someone develops it every three minutes and currently there is no cure. We know it is scary but we must confront the biggest health & social care challenge of our time. We owe it to the 900,000 people across the UK currently living with dementia to campaign for change, whilst providing vital day-to-day support. By taking part and raising money, or donating to someone who is, you are helping to do this.Once you donate, JustGiving sends your money directly to Alzheimer's Society you dont need to do anything and it's the most efficient way to fundraise. So, who will you walk for? #MemoryWalk
