At Alzheimer’s Society we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding groundbreaking research.

Story

AHHH what am I doing?!?!?!

I have wanted to raise money for Alzheimer's Society for a while, but I was unsure how. I saw my Grandma go through this and the effects it has. Plus, 1 person develops (not diagnosed!) Alzheimer's every 3 minutes and there is currently no cure. Once you are diagnosed, there is currently no going back and I want that to change.

Last September, I went for a run and I couldn't even run a mile. I also read up about how running and cardio exercise is a really great way to hold off developing Alzheimer's. I was so ashamed of myself for letting myself get unfit and since then, I haven't stopped running! :-)

I am currently up to 10 miles and I hope to get to 12 miles before the day!

I have never taken part in a race before of any kind, so it really is a great challenge for me.

Thank you so much for your donation!!
