My four sisters and I - the Alexander Girls ! - are walking this year on the 16th October to raise money for the Alzheimers Society. Our mum, Polly, now in a nursing home, is in the last stages of Alzheimers. We are so lucky that mum is content and gives us the best smiles when we visit.

Every day more and more families are affected by this disease. We need to do our best for them, our children and grand children and turn this around. Research is the way to do this. If you can support my mum and everyone affected that would be awesome - thank you.
