Story

From all of the team we would like to thank you all for sponsoring the Ladies of the Forest. On Saturday 5th June we achieved our aim and completed the Trek26 challenge. Your support and contribution will enable Alzheimer’s to continue their good work. Living with dementia at any time brings challenges to the person, family and friends and your kind donations will help find a cure. Alzheimers is the most common form of dementia with around 60% of diagnoses in the UK. Each mile of our walk was to remember someone we know who has been affected by this disease.

We really cannot express our gratitude to you, from all of us a massive
