Alzheimer's Research UK and Loughborough University Students' Union Rag are partnering on the epic Dash to Dubrovnik, a 2000-mile drive across 12 (or more!) countries.

Story

In June 2021, teams from Loughborough University will take a £500 car of their choice on an epic 2000-mile journey across 12 countries. Since Alzheimer's disease was first diagnosed in 1901, Loughborough University was established, astronauts have travelled to the moon, research has helped double cancer survival rates, and a diagnosis of HIV is no longer a death sentence. Yet, we still don't have any treatments to slow or stop the diseases that cause dementia. Alzheimer's Research UK wants to see a world free from the fear, harm and heartbreak of dementia and research is the answer. Alzheimer's Research UK are the UKs leading dementia research charity, and are powering world-class research studies to beat dementia sooner. Backed by passionate scientists and supporters, they're challenging the way people think about dementia, uniting the big thinkers in the field, and funding the innovative science that will deliver a cure.
