Are you looking for a new challenge? Do you want to make a real difference in your community? Then why not run for Memory Matters!

Memory Matters is a local charity that provides support and care for people living with dementia and their families. We believe in empowering everyone affected by dementia to thrive.

We're looking for people to run in aid of Memory Matters at a local running event of their choosing, from a 5k to a half-marathon. Whether you're a seasoned runner or a complete beginner, we would love to have you on our team.

Looking to mix things up? Why not try a trail run, triathlon, or even an inflatable obstacle course?

By running for Memory Matters, you'll be helping us continue our vital work. Every pound you raise will go directly to supporting people with dementia and their families.

We'll provide you with all the support you need to make your run a success, including:

• A fundraising pack with tips and ideas

• A dedicated person at Memory Matters to help you with your fundraising

• The knowledge that you are making a real difference in the lives of people with dementia
