Team Tyrrell has been created to take part in Southend’s fantastic 5k Glow Walk on Saturday 7 March. We want to raise an amazing amount of money for Alzheimer’s Society in memory of John Tyrrell, our dear brother, uncle and friend. There’s 75 years’ difference between our oldest and youngest team members - that alone is surely worthy of a few pennies!

Around 225,000 people develop dementia every year, that's the equivalent to one person every three minutes. Memory Walks are taking place across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to raise money for a world without dementia.

Once you donate, JustGiving will send your money directly to Alzheimer's Society. So it's the most efficient way to raise money, saving time and cutting costs for the charity. Let's take on dementia together!
