For the Battle Against Alzheimer’s
Shark Member Sybille Marchese’s running the Oxford Half Marathon to help raise money for Alzheimer’s Research UK, please support her by donating on her Just Giving Page.
Good Luck, Sybille & Steph! 💙
The run takes place on Sunday 11 October, 2206 Sybille and Steph are running for TeamARUK as part of the Fowler Lab Fundraiser for Alzheimer’s Research UK!
Sybille is dedicated to researching a cure for Alzheimer’s, working in research for a cure. Tomorrow, she and Steph will be taking on 13.1 miles (21.08 Km) to help raise vital funds in the fight against dementia.
At The Sharks, we’re incredibly proud to cheer them on. Sybille has volunteered with us for the past five years, supporting our events in countless ways, from timekeeping, marshalling and judging at slaloms to helping paddlers on the water, taking photographs and travelling to support the team. She’s given so much of her time and energy to our community, and now it’s our turn to support her!
💙 Every 3 minutes, dementia steals a happily ever after.
Alzheimer’s Research UK exists for a cure. Through research, we can develop new ways to diagnose dementia, discover better treatments and, ultimately, find a cure.
Now it’s time to get behind Sybille and Steph! Whether you can donate £1 or £50, every little helps. If you can’t donate, sharing their fundraising page is another brilliant way to show your support.
🙌 Donate & Cheer Them On!
From everyone at The Sharks, good luck and thank you to you both! We’ll be cheering you on every step of the way. Run strong, enjoy the experience, and make every mile count! 🏃♀️💙
