Dementia means business, and it's a business we want to shut down. So we are "Fishing for a Cure". Pete and I are two ordinary people with commitment and passion to help find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. The work of Neuroscience Research Australia has inspired us, and we want to support them by raising money as part of our participation in the NeuRA Great Wall of China: Discovery Trek. We also want to get fitter and healthier so that we can have a better chance at growing old in good health. |

This Discovery Trek challenge is bringing it all together – the opportunity to achieve our health goals, and most importantly, help fundraise for research to help people living with Alzheimer’s now, and the thousands who are diagnosed on a daily basis worldwide.
A cure is needed urgently. My mum was given this slow death sentence at the age of 68.
She is now 78 with very poor quality of life.
This disease has destroyed her capacity to function and to enjoy life.
It has taken away from her so much – cooking, sewing, crocheting, enjoying time with family and friends,
driving, self-care, and so much more in the early stages – and now in the late stage she can no longer
walk or talk or do anything for herself.
Memories are a small part of what dementia destroys.
However the essence of the person is still there.
Humanity needs a cure, and we need it now.
The more people that know about Neuroscience Research Australia, the greater their impact,
so please spread the word by sharing this page with your friends, your family, and all your
social networks. The life you save could very well be your own.
Thank you for your generosity, it means a lot!
