As a family run, outdoor brand, we are delighted to be the Lead Sponsor for Alzheimer’s Society flagship trekking event – Trek26 for the second year running in 2022.
Alzheimer’s Society is the UK’s leading dementia charity, working tirelessly to find new treatments and, ultimately, a cure for dementia. They provide expert information, training and support services to all who need our help and are working towards creating a dementia-friendly society so more people can live well with dementia.
In order to continue funding research, finding treatments and improve care for people affected by dementia, Alzheimer’s Society are hosting an incredible trekking event, Trek26 which we are proudly sponsoring. This includes a series of epic 13 or 26 mile treks in seven stunning locations across the UK this summer – and we’re inviting you to join in.
In 2021, thousands of trekkers raised almost £4 million, and we need your help to beat this total in 2022! From the breath-taking scenery of the Lake District and South Devon Coast to the iconic sights of Stonehenge and London - there's a trek for everyone.
