I am doing a sky dive to face my fears as my grandad faced a fear he was not aware of. The fear of the unknown. That is greatest fear that we can all bear. He was brave and courageous and taught us everyday what is is like to be brave. I want to honour his legacy and do this Sky dive. I will never never know the fear he felt but I had the compassion and empathy to understand. I took time and I learnt, developed and adapted. We ar human, all we can do is learn. My grandad was my hero and taught me so much. In this generation, if anything. Just be kind.

Am walking for my wife Joyce who is suffering from dementia and am hope ing to raise a littel case to help find a cure ,your help could really help thank you.

I will be taking part in the Memory Walk in honour of my beautiful Nana who sadly lost her long battle with Dementia in May this year.
My nana tirelessly cared for her own mother who suffered from Altzimers disease before being diagnosed with vascular dementia in 2012.

I'm doing the memory walk in memory of my dad.
Dad passed away on 4th May 2025 after a short battle with Alzheimers and vascular dementia. I have worked in dementia care for thirty years.
One of myfavourite memories of my dad was when he posed with my wedding bouquet in his hand whilst I got out of the camper van. My dad was larger than life and is very dearly missed .

I'm swimming in celebration of my lovely mum, Iris. She taught me to swim at a very young age and it was something we continued to share throughout her life. I miss my mum every day, but I have so many wonderful memories, even through her battle with mixed dementia and Alzheimers. Life is for celebrating!

Every year me and my dad would do Alzheimer’s memory walk, my nan and grandad had dementia it was an awful journey. We never wanted another family to go through that. Then sadly my dad got diagnosed with vascular dementia 2017 he started to deteriorate quickly then sadly 24,06,2024 my dad gained he’s angel wings. I am raising awareness and doing my own memory walk 2025 in memory of my dad, Nan, grandad and all the lovely residents and clients I have had the pleasure of taking care of in my career this is for our future. I miss my dad so much but I continue my memory walks in he’s memory because I know he wouldn’t want me to stop.

I am running my first ever 5km for my nan who we sadly lost earlier this year after a long decline. She was an inspiration.

We first noticed changes in Mam in her early 40s—she struggled to tell the time and seemed distant. Dad encouraged her to get a job to feel engaged again, however she couldn’t make it work.
For years, we begged the doctor to check on her, but they said there was nothing they could do unless mam went to see them. Eventually, during a routine appointment, she became angry at the doctor, and they finally saw something was wrong as her behavior was so out of character. Mam was diagnosed with dementia at 45.
As her condition worsened, she struggled to communicate, relying on Dad to make her decisions and speak on her behalf. Very soon she only managed a few sentences, one being, “Ben, Lilly, Heidi, Harry, Donnas got a baby” the names of her youngest daughter and the grandchildren she had at the time.
Over time, we saw Mam fade—from a strong, fun lady, to a cute, vulnerable darling. I loved watching as she’d place a hand on my dad’s shoulder and follow him around the house. That was her Kevin, her husband, and her safe space. She never lost her love as a mother, from helping us correct our clothing to holding her latest grandbabies.
In April 2021, Dad called to say she had been taken to hospital. After a week she was discharged still very poorly. I'm so glad we had lots of cuddles that weekend. As that night at 4:48 am, I got THAT phone call—Mam had passed peacefully in Dad’s arms. She was just 60. I’ll never forget arriving back at my parents home, seeing her beautiful face, but knowing I would never hold her in my arms, hear her voice, hold her hand, or look into those big blue eyes of hers ever again.
