Keen to find out more about our fundraising for Alzheimer’s?
At Priestley Rose, our work is built on compassion – and every so often, we get to take that compassion beyond our home and into the wider community.
Our recent walk, which formed part of our commitment to supporting important charities, was just such a moment.

Fundraising for Alzheimer’s: A Huge Thank You from Priestley Rose
We’re delighted to share that we raised £411 for our Alzheimer’s Walk – and we couldn’t be more grateful to everyone who supported us.
Whether you donated, cheered us on, or simply spread the word, your kindness made all the difference. It was more than just a walk – it was a gesture of solidarity with every resident, family, and carer affected by Alzheimer’s.
The event reminded us, once again, that when we come together for something we believe in, the impact can be truly profound.
Why Fundraising for Alzheimer’s Means So Much to Us
At Priestley Rose, fundraising for Alzheimer’s isn’t just a charitable act – it’s deeply personal.
At Macc Care, we see the effects of Alzheimer’s every day. We support, care for and walk beside those living with dementia and Alzheimer’s, as well as their families. We understand their journey and witness their resilience; and it’s that experience which fuels our passion to make a difference – not just within our walls, but beyond them.
That’s why walking in honour of our residents was so powerful. Every step we took was filled with love, respect, and the hope of a better future.
A Walk to Remember: Fundraising for Alzheimer’s
We walked side by side – for our staff, families and friends – united by a shared purpose. The sun shone, spirits were high, and throughout the route, there was a real sense of togetherness.
Some walked quietly, lost in thought. Others shared stories and memories, laughter mingling with reflection.
But no matter the pace or the path, we walked with the same goal: to show our support for those affected by Alzheimer’s and to raise awareness and funds for this vital cause.
Your Support Makes a Difference – Fundraising for Alzheimer’s Together
The generosity we’ve received has been overwhelming – and we want to say, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
Fundraising for Alzheimer’s relies on moments like these, where communities rally around a common cause.
Your donations will help to fund research, support services and resources for families, and provide hope for future generations. Every pound raised is a step towards better understanding, better care, and – one day – a cure.
So whether you gave £1 or £100, please know this: you’ve helped light the way forward.
What’s Next for Our Fundraising for Alzheimer’s?
Raising over £400 is just the beginning. We’re already thinking about what’s next, and how we can keep the momentum going.
From coffee mornings and raffles, to creative workshops and awareness talks, we’ll be continuing our efforts year-round. Because for us, fundraising for worthy causes is not a one-time event – it’s a continuing commitment.
Thank you to all those who took part, supported, donated and sent words of encouragement; we look forward to sharing plans for our next charity event with you soon!
