Join Younger People with Dementia at Dorney Lake Events and help raise integral funds to provide support for younger families affected by dementia in our community.

Story

I am running to raise money for YPWD who provides support services throughout the working week to people with dementia who are diagnosed under the age of 65. They support families from as early as in their 30’s, who never could have foreseen that they would be living with a progressive disease so early on in their lives. Their charity provides a safe and fun environment, reducing loneliness, promoting confidence, boosting mood and offering a helping hand to not just the person with dementia, but their loved ones who are coming to terms with the illness.

I worked with them as a supplier last year and it was so amazing to see the work they're doing for a largely misunderstood area of mental health.
