Emma Lynch fundraising for Alzheimer Society of Ireland in Charleville International Half Marathon 2026
On the 13th of September, I'll be running in the Charleville Half Marathon in memory of my grandad, who sadly passed away in February after a long battle with dementia. As September is Alzheimer's Awareness Month, I wanted to do something in memory of my grandad while raising awareness and funds for a cause that affects so many families. Every donation, no matter how big or small, would mean so much and help support vital dementia and Alzheimer's services, research and awareness.
