I'm raising money for Dementia as my wife, Barbara, recently died from this dreadful disease.
On Sunday, 07 June, I'm taking part in Gold Coast's Memory Walk & Jog to raise funds to support Australians impacted by dementia. This is a cause close to my heart and I would love your support.
Please make a donation to support my efforts and help us reach our goal to beat dementia.
Not many people know, but dementia is Australia's leading cause of death. By 2058 it's expected that over 800,000 Australians will have dementia. But we can change this.
All money I raise will support the work of Dementia Australia and help provide vital support services like counselling, support groups, education, and research to help find a cure.
Together we can achieve a lot. Your donation would mean the world to me.
Thanks for your support!
