Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, supporting my Challenge60.

With 2022 being my 60th year on planet earth, my Challenge60 Quadrathlon will comprise of a:-

25 Kilometre Row
25 Kilometre Spin (Cycle)
25 Kilometre Swim
25 Kilometre Walk (Trek)

to be staged and staggered between March and August 2022 at Darwin Wellness at their Northwood Club. The total of the 100 kilometres equates to circa 60 miles.

I’ll be raising much needed funds for the charity founded by Sir Jackie Stewart, Race Against Dementia, set up to fund pioneering research into the prevention and cure of dementia.

Dementia shatters lives. In the time it takes to complete a pit stop at the Monaco Grand Prix, one more person develops the condition, dealing a cruel blow to another family.

There are 50 million people living with dementia across the globe and every minute this figure is rising. Behind each statistic is a real person and a heart-breaking story – a wife, a husband, a father, a mother. Each has shared memories, passions, ambitions and hopes that are slowly fading away. A diagnosis of dementia doesn’t just impact one person. Its effects ripple through entire families, wreaking devastation on countless lives.

We can’t just talk about dementia. Caring is not enough. We have to find a solution and a new approach to research is the only way.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving. They’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate, saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many thanks for your generosity and support.
