In memory of Grant

Walk for a Cure - Leeds

Walking for someone special to me, who was taken by dementia.

I'm taking part in Walk For A Cure

We’re taking part in Walk For A Cure in memory of Grant (a loving husband and dad) and because we 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.

What a wonderful morning yesterday, walking with so many others for a common cause. Sadlly, the sun didn’t shine, but at least it was dry. We beat our initial fundraising goal by over a thousand pounds….just amazing….and we know there are a few more pounds still to come in!  Thanks to everyone for your donations and your wonderful words of encouragement. You’re right, Grant would be very proud ….. of all of us ❤️ Xx

A thousand thanks!

This week we exceeded £1,000!  Yay! I received an email from Alzheimer’s Research UK to say that £1,000 will allow researchers to buy amyloid protein for the lab to better understand this hallmark cause of Alzheimer’s disease. Amazing!  Hoping for a dry, sunny day on Sunday ☀️

Thank you

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated already. Within a couple of hours we got so close to our fundraising goal that I’ve had to increase it! So grateful to all of you for your love, help and support over the last six months especially. Doing this walk in Grant’s home city will be really special. Xx
