Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running in the Cambridge Half Marathon with my brother for Alzheimer’s research as family and friends have suffered with this horrible illness. Many people will suffer or will know people who have had Alzheimer’s.

Today, there are few treatments options for people with dementia. Existing treatments are limited in their scope and don’t work for all forms of dementia. But donations like yours are helping change this.

Current Alzheimer’s treatments in the UK only help to manage the symptoms, but thanks to research there is a new generation of treatments on the horizon that tackle the underlying disease.

Our Drug Discovery Alliance is working on over 20 potential new treatments for dementia right now and there are over a dozen dementia treatments being tested in the final stages of clinical trials.

My Grandfather suffered for 10 years with Alzheimer’s and I am running for him.

Thank you for taking your time to read this and if you can donate I thank you in advance.
