Story
I'm doing this for my granddad who passed away on 4th August 2017, not before a bloody good fight! Alzheimer's is a nasty illness and I want to help find the cure so others don't have to experience it.
I'm not the fittest of people but I'm going to do the 8km (5 mile) memory walk around Heaton Park and I'd be so grateful if you could spare any pennies to help me reach the target.
Around 225,000 people develop dementia every year – that's the equivalent to one person every three minutes. This September and October Memory Walks will be taking place across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to raise money for a world without dementia. Arm in arm, step by step and pound by pound, we will get there. Once you donate, Just Giving will send your money directly to the Alzheimer's Society. So it's the most efficient way to raise money – saving time and cutting costs for the charity. Please dig deep and help us walk for a world without dementia.
