We're doing the Illawarra Memory Walk & Jog to raise funds for the 433,300 Australian's living with dementia.
To honour our darling husband, dad, dad-in-law and legendary Papa, Tony Ridgway, we’ll be doing the Illawarra Memory Walk & Jog on the 22 March to show our love and help Dementia Australia.
Big Ton was diagnosed with vascular dementia about 7 years ago and while we may have lost him we will always remember him as our kind, funny, loving and intelligent Dad and Papa, and husband to our strong, resilient and beautiful mum/nana Lyn. Not a day went by that Dad didn’t ask for her and till the end Mum was the one person he never forgot 💕
So for you Big Ton 🫡
Did you know that 1.7 million carers, family members and friends are involved in the care of someone living with dementia in Australia. That's why we're hoping to raise as much money as possible to help provide vital services like counselling, support groups, education.
We'll be walking, jogging, and running to help stop dementia in its tracks!
