Story

ROYAL PARKS HALF MARATHON - DEMENTIA UK 🤍

I have decided to run a half marathon to raise money for Dementia UK. The event will take place on October 8th, 2023. This cause is very close to my heart as I lost my grandmother to dementia on November 8th, 2019. I want to help families spend more time with their loved ones who are affected by this disease.

My grandmother was a huge inspiration to me. She loved swimming and doing things by herself, she was very funny and loved wearing beautiful Sari’s. She also taught me how to make the best Lassi. 🤍🙏🏽

Although I have never run a half marathon before, I am ready to take on this challenge. Bring on the half marathon! 😅

Every three minutes in the UK, someone develops dementia and the diagnosis can be devastating for the whole family. Many struggle to know where to turn, and are left feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and alone. By the end of a two-hour stream, 40 people will have developed dementia and thats why we need your help. We want every family affected by dementia to have the life-changing support of a specialist dementia nurse, but right now, we cant reach everyone who needs us. When you #StreamforDementiaUK, youll help raise vital funds so our nurses can offer a lifeline to more families when they need it most.

Thank you so much for visiting my just giving page! 

BIG LOVE ALWAYS 🤍🙏🏽🧿
