Our challenge in support of Alzheimer’s
Last year, an Aviva team cycled from Norwich to London raising over £40,000 in aid of the Alzheimer’s Society, through the Insurance United Against Dementia campaign.
This year, from 23-25 September I’m joining the Aviva team cycling between York and London in a gruelling multi-day ride over 500km and 5,000m of climbing.
Those covering the full distance will be supported by clients and insurance partners in an attempt to break last year’s immense fundraising effort. To do this we need every penny you can spare towards this fantastic cause.
Your generous donation will not only fuel the charity’s mission, to create a world where dementia no longer devastates lives, but it will also drive the team on through the challenge.
Thank you for your generosity!
Alzheimer’s Society
As a Society, we are made up of people with dementia, carers, trusted experts, campaigners, researchers and clinicians. We are the UK’s largest collective force of people with unparalleled knowledge and over 40 years of experience addressing the biggest challenges for people living with dementia.
We’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future, through:
- Providing dementia support services such as our support line, online and print information, expert dementia advisers and online community, giving advice and practical guidance for the next steps as people living with dementia navigate the hardest times of their lives
- Funding dementia research, backing the world’s brightest minds and funding over 600 research projects to find the best ways to get early diagnosis, innovate care and develop targeted treatments
- Campaigning to hold decision-makers to account, and amplify the voices of everyone living with dementia
With your help we can give vital support to those who need it most, hold decision-makers to account, and fund groundbreaking research to transform the future for everyone living with dementia.
Why we need your support today
Dementia is the biggest health and social challenge of our time. There are currently estimated to be 900,000 people in the UK with dementia. Many are undiagnosed and facing the realities of their condition alone. As a Society, and with the help of our supporters, we’re changing that.
Together, we are help and hope for everyone living with dementia.
