Every three minutes someone in the UK develops dementia. That's the equivalent of around 225,000 people every year.  There are currently over 4000 people diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer's in Cornwall and an estimated more than 1000 people undiagnosed.

Saskia and I are Makaton tutors who want to support those diagnosed with dementia and their carers to learn Makaton so that they have a voice in later life.

By taking part in Memory Walk you are helping us walk for a dementia free future and help people affected by dementia.Once you donate, JustGiving will send your money directly to Alzheimer's Society.
