I am running the Birmingham Half Marathon on Sunday 20th October 2013 to raise money for Alzeimers UK. I have chosen this charity because of the information and support they have given to my Grandparents. My Grandma was diagnosed with Dementia three years ago. This was a completely life shattering situation for her and my Grandad. Life has had to completely change. My Grandma is confused and needs help with everything.This is something I never believed would happen, but it has happened. The support of Alzeimers UK has provided knowledge and support for both my Grandma and my Grandad. This was a scary time for all. The support in aiding my Grandad to support her and to understand what's going on, and to also give him rest-spite. They both go to support groups and socialise with others in similar situations. This has been great, and all thanks to Alzheimers UK.

I want to raise this money for two reasons...to give something back to a charity that have supported two people I love dearly... and to help them be able to continue providing their care. I dont know what I would do without my grandparents so I want to help in anyway that I can.
