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 heartbreak and devastation caused by dementia.


Alzheimer’s has deeply affected my own family. It took my great Auntie Rosie from us in 2015, My amazing Grandad Bill lived with this disease up until his recent passing, and my great auntie Mary is currently living with dementia. It’s a cruel disease that impacts so many families in different ways—and no amount of preparation can truly ease the pain or change the outcome.


Alzheimer’s Research UK is the UK’s leading dementia research charity, dedicated to finding a cure. Research is our strongest hope of stopping dementia in its tracks and giving families a chance at a different future.


Your donation will help fund groundbreaking research and the development of life-changing treatments—bringing us closer to the day we can finally beat dementia.


Thank you so much for your support.
