The Alzheimer’s Society is urging Foyle residents to put on their walking shoes and support Memory Walk. Memory Walk is Alzheimer’s Society’s biggest annual fundraiser. The 2012 Foyle Memory Walk will take place on Sunday 2nd September in St Columb’s Park.

The Society is asking families and individuals to step out for a few hours and raise money to help support local people with dementia and their carers.

Carol, who is an Alzheimer’s Society Volunteer, said:

‘My Mum has Alzheimer’s so I know how devastating its impact can be - not only on the person who has been diagnosed but also on their family and friends.
