Why Alzheimer Society?
Ricky's beloved Granddad was diagnosed with Dementia and eventually lost his battle with the disease in 2017. Ricky learnt first hand the severity of the disease from it’s effect on the person, the impact to the wider family and just how much of a national challenge it really is. Ricky felt compelled to do what he can to help out and continues to do so today.
