Story

On Friday 23rd July 2021, our beautiful Mum passed away to Dementia at the age of 70.

Our Mum suffered so greatly to this cruel and terrible illness and she spent the last 9 months of her life at a Care Home in Leicestershire.

Mum fought the illness so very hard, but her health declined massively and day by day we were slowly losing our Mum to this devastating illness.

On Sunday 21st September 2025, I will be running the Berlin Marathon in memory of our Mum, who we miss so very greatly; her beautiful smile, her incredible kind and caring nature, which will remain in our hearts always.

We love you so much Mum and thank you so much for everything that you did for us all.

I would like to raise as much money as possible to support the incredible work that the Charity - Dementia UK does for so many people throughout the UK, who suffer with Dementia. Every donation will make such a huge difference.
