I'm raising funds for people with dementia!

My goal is to run 500km within 3 months. Starting from 23/07/2021. 

I am a health professional. I hope people who live with Dementia and their care givers can have a happy life with dignity and choice at home. I would like to help people with Dementia maintain "who they are". 

But I need your help! Please make a donation to support my efforts and help me reach my goal to beat dementia.

All funds raised will support the work of Dementia Australia to provide vital support services for people living with dementia, their families and carers. These services include counselling, support groups, education and training.

Thank you for your support.
