Alzheimer's Heroes is more than just a name; it's a call to action. Our mission is to empower individuals and communities to become champions in the battle against Alzheimer's disease. If you are a primary caregiver or have a loved one who is suffering with or has suffered from Alzheimer's or just passionate about making a difference, Alzheimer's Heroes welcomes you with open arms.

At the heart of Alzheimer's Heroes is a vibrant and supportive community of individuals united by a common purpose.

Through our platform, we'll fundraise, raise awareness and inspire others to join us in our campaign. Alzheimer's Heroes empowers individuals to make a tangible difference in the fight against Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's Heroes is a catalyst for change, it's a movement fuelled by the power of community and the strength of collective action. Together, we'll shine a light in the darkness of Alzheimer's, inspiring hope, fostering resilience, and ultimately, changing lives

Running for a Cure

Alzheimer’s Heroes was founded by George who was inspired to run his first marathon in London 2023, following the passing of his Dad, Andrew (aged 65), after a 7 year battle with the disease. The success of running the London Marathon resulted in George raising the highest amount for an ARUK runner that year, and showed George the power of community and the support of family and friends.

This year George has set the challenge of running 6 marathons in 6 different countries in one year to help spread and raise awareness for Alzheimer's, however he is on a mission do more than just run marathons. Instead he wants to inspire real change and ignite a movement. That's why he has launched Alzheimer's Heroes, a platform dedicated to bringing people together to participate in fundraising, share experiences, find support, and take action in the fight against Alzheimer’s.

George hopes to inspire more people to be physically and socially active as this could help decrease the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
