I'm making the impossible, possible, by taking part in Australia's Walk & Jog Challenge to raise much needed funds for dementia research.
I’m taking part in Australia's Walk & Jog Challenge by committing to raise much needed funds to support people impacted by dementia. This one is deeply personal. My Dad has just been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and I’m sharing this with his permission. It still doesn’t feel real saying it out loud.
But I need your help! Please make a donation to support my efforts and help me to make the impossible, possible.
My fundraising will help support the work of Dementia Australia Research Foundation, funding innovative Australian research into dementia causes, diagnosis, treatment and one day a cure.
Thank you for your support.

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis John but knowing your tenacity to deal with difficulties head on I know this too will be dealt with dignity and strength of character. I considered you my mentor and friend in our time at NAB Colac and beyond.
