Story

Hi,

Thank you for visiting my justgiving page.

I will be running the London Marathon on 28th April 2019 and running for Age UK, in memory of my Big Mum (grandmother).

I work as a physiotherapist and have seen and heard from many older people how lonely life can be at that age. For 1.9 million older people lonliness can define their lives and have a serious impact on their health.

My grandmother was fortunate enough to have spent her whole life around people she adored, even during her last breath. I believe we have a responsibility towards our older generation.

Donating to this page will help the national Age UK to continue providing vital services that offer companionship, advice and support for millions of older people facing later life alone

Any help, big or small would be highly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Monica Sharma
