I'm taking part in Walk For A Cure

I'm taking part in Walk For A Cure because I want to help end the devastation of dementia.

Alzheimer's Research UK is the UK's leading dementia research charity, dedicated to finding a cure.

Research is our only chance of stopping dementia in its tracks and offering hope to the many families affected. 

Your donation will fuel cutting-edge research that could uncover new life-changing treatments, bringing us closer to a cure. 

Thank you for your support.

HV Celebration of Life

Friday 5th Jun
We sadly lost Harald to dementia on April 16th. We held a beautiful celebration of life for him on May 17th (which shared my Nana's birthday) and there were some wonderful stories shared about Harald; his excitement for life, his flight logs, his life in Germany during the war, his teaching style, songs he taught students, his love for anything woodwork, helping buy racers start their cars and lustige Tatsache's (the German for fun fact). 
My takeaway was a poem shared by Caroline and Harald's wonderful neighbours, Chris and Savi, a poem by Rumi which says "I love you neither with my heart nor with my mind. My heart might stop, my mind can forget. I love you with my soul, because my soul never stops or forgets".
