Go your own way to help dementia cause

Under normal circumstances, many thousands would have by now signed up to take part in an Alzheimer’s Society Memory Walk.

It would have been my 10th year attending such an event. While it saddens me that we can’t all get together this year, I’m determined with my family to walk my own way in memory of my Nana.

Wherever you are, we can all still help make a difference and I encourage you to sign up either with your household – pets included – friends, or another household in line with current government guidelines. Create your own route, from lapping your garden or local park to revisiting somewhere special.

This year’s Santander-sponsored Memory Walk is free to register. Walks can be organised anytime between now and October – or you might choose to do it on September 20 to mark World Alzheimer’s Day.

Sign up now at memorywalk.org. uk and with every step, you’ll help change the lives of people affected by dementia. Vicky Mcclure Alzheimer’s Society Ambassador
