Dame Barbara Windsor has thanked the public from the bottom of her heart as a team of her friends and family hit their £100,000 fundraising target today, two days ahead of the Virgin Money London Marathon.

Harry Cullen, 63, is running the Virgin Money London Marathon on 28 April for the Dementia Revolution.

Actress and Alzheimer’s Society supporter, Lacey Turner, is urging everyone to unite against dementia with their families, friends and colleagues, by baking or buying cupcakes to raise vital funds.

Close friends of Barbara Windsor unveil themselves as an all-star team known as ‘Barbara’s Revolutionaries’.

A former professional footballer living with dementia is determined to give the condition the boot. Dave Serella, who played for Nottingham Forest, Walsall and Blackpool, is backing the Alzheimer’s Society Memory Walk fundraising campaign to raise money for vital research.
