Over 700,000 people in the UK suffer from Dementia and more than half suffer from Alzheimers disease. 1 in 3 older people will end their lives with Dementia which is one of the main causes of disability later in life ahead of Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke.

Your support could not be more vital, many people know of someone that may have been touched with this traumatic disease and how it can take loved ones and cause so much heartbreak.

From the 2nd - 11th May 2009 I will be trekking along the great wall of China to raise money for Alzheimers. As you can probably guess this is a fair distance through pretty rugged terrain in a very short space of time.

 I  suffer with Diabetes and I am one of the youngest people in the uk to contract it. I have lived with this condition since i was 18 months old and have tried never to let it take me over.

 Therfore i am doing this not only to raise money for a worthwhile cause but also as a personal goal to prove that i will never be beaten by my own problems.
