I am jumping for Dementia Adventure because my Grandad recently died having lived with dementia for many years. My mum works for Dementia Adventure and I have seen how important it is for people living with dementia to still have some excitement in their lives. My parents bought me this skydive as a present so all of the money raised will go to supporting more people to take part in a holiday with their family. Someone develops dementia every three minutes. Until a cure is found we need better ways of living with this condition. Dementia Adventure believes, with the right support, people living with dementia can continue to enjoy outdoor activities, keep active and retain a sense of adventure in their lives. We have trained thousands of individuals to think differently about dementia and enabled hundreds to enjoy a supported dementia holiday - making a huge difference to the wellbeing of people with dementia and their families
