Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease impact millions of individuals in Canada, with a growing number diagnoses expected in the future. The link between physical health and the diseases, namely the effectiveness of which regular physical activity can work to prevent the diseases is underappreciated. With regular activity, even light exercise such as walking having the potential to reduce risk significantly, it is one of the most effective methods of preventing the diseases. This campaign hopes to shine light on the importance of physical activity on long-term neurological health and raise money for further research on the diseases.

    Way to go Josh — looking forward to hearing about your marathon experience! And thanks for the great work raising money for a great cause. Dementia has taken a toll on so many families in our community and it’s becoming all the more prevalent.
