THSince 2018, when I found out I was a carrier of the MAPT mutation which means I’ll get the FTD that has taken my mom and 12 relatives in their 40s..
I have dedicated my life to raising awareness & funds towards a cure for all types of dementia.
I’ve done this largely through running challenges..
Marathon distance 51 times
7 in 7 days from Birmingham to London
100 miles in 24 hours
Attempted 982 laps of my local athletics track for the 982,000 people living with dementia in the UK
Ran the length of the Britain
Next year we are taking are taking our mission to the birthplace of all this devastation, our family roots of Ireland 🍀 remembering those we’ve lost and returning to the place our moms family called home ❤️
We’ve raised over £300,000 to date and we have a mission to raise over 1 million before we get dementia.
In August we incorporated our own ‘FTD Brothers Foundation’ so when we are gone our legacy can live on to help and support families living with dementia all over the UK & Ireland giving hope to millions of people 🫶🏼
Help support our mission by tagging a brand you think should support our Irish challenge and further more our life mission..
