For Grandma

Walk for a Cure - Edinburgh

We're taking part in Walk For A Cure

My amazing Grandma, and friend to so many, Florence MacKinnon, suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. This cruel disease robbed her of enjoying the last years of her life and took her from us twice. With no current cure, I support ARUK to work towards a breakthrough so that people like my wonderful Grandma no longer have to suffer.


We're taking part in Walk For A Cure because every 3 minutes dementia steals a happily ever after. Research is our only chance of changing the ending for people affected by dementia.

Alzheimer's Research UK are the UK's leading dementia research charity. They exist for a cure.

Your donation helps scientists and researchers find new ways to diagnose dementia, develop new treatments and find a cure for dementia.
