Any amount will help.
Iain Jackson, 25 will swap the Medway towns for the African plains to climb the highest freestanding mountain in the world, Mt Kilimanjaro, as I embark on the ultimate eleven day challenge for Alzheimer's Society in Febuary 2012.
I decided to do trek Kilimanjaro after my Grandad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease two years ago. I was at uni when my grandad was first diagnosed, when i first saw him it was such an emotional and hard time for me because the last time i saw him i was joking around with him just as normal but then seeing him laying in bed it seamed he wasnt my grandad. going to see him now is not as hard as it was but its still sad as he gradualy starts to deteriate but its still a nice feeling when i go and see him and he says hello and that he still knows my face and name. I wouldnt want to wish this appon anyone so, By raising funds for Alzheimer's Society i and you will be helping provide more support for carers and people with dementia as well as joining the fight to find a cure. This is going to be One hell of a challenge for me as for the most of you that no me im not the most athletic person around soooo please dig deep guys.
