Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising website. Having been diagnosed with Alzheimer's just before my 60th birthday in 2007, I am determined to raise yet more money for VITAL research into this devastating and demoralising disease.

The Forget Me Not Rowers had a brilliant time last year and raised a gob-smacking £97,000, so my stalwart crew and I got the blades flashing again and rowed downstream from Henley to Eton on Wednesday JUNE 1st in bright sunshine!

You have no idea how much your wonderful support has helped and we have specifically targeted a research project on the benefits of exercise, which produces a protein that can combat the build-up of amyloid deposits in the brain.

According to the World Alzheimer Report 2009, in 2010 an estimated 35.6 million people worldwide will be living with dementia. This number is expected to double every 20 years.

THE NEED FOR RESEARCH IS ENORMOUS - YOUR CONTRIBUTION IS MAKING A REAL DIFFERENCE.

Making a donation Online through CharityGiving is simple, safe and secure. CharityGiving reclaims gift aid tax on your donation (for UK taxpayers), meaning any donation is worth around 25% more.

If you prefer, please donate Offline by Cheque or Standing Order. It would be wonderful if my Forget-me-not Row could really raise some serious money and also the awareness of many more people to this horrible, debilitating illness.
