Story

Everyone knows of a loved one suffering memory loss linked to dementia and Alzheimer's disease, sadly we know this all too well from a personal perspective. We decided as a family to do something to help research into these dreadful conditions, and if possible make someone's life easier. We have decided to run the Great North Run as "Team Salmon" which sees Laura, Ali, Ian, Luke, and Graeme all taking part. Please help us with our challenge donate what you can, anything you can spare is most welcome."
