My Story

I am running the London Marathon 2024 in memory of my amazing Grandad Harry and Great Auntie Jessie, whom both died from Dementia. Harry and Jessie were siblings and it was awful to watch them both suffering at the same time, forget their family members, be apart from each other and yet they still tried their best to smile and live for each day.

Dementia has a massive impact on the person living with the condition and also their families. You become deeply distressed as to why they can't remember you. Some days they can remember and others they treat you as a stranger. More and more families are being impacted by Dementia and it is so vital that continuous research is carried out to help find a cure or a way to slow down the condition.

Any donations to this amazing cause would be greatly appreciated. I am also donating some of my own money and of course I'll be running 26.2 miles, in addition to four months of marathon training.
