Welcome!
What a brilliant few months of fundraising for Together Dementia Support!
There’s been bunny hopping, plant selling, catering, cash collections, running and walking, scaling tall buildings (twice!) and an enormous amount of support and generosity shown to us. Thanks to everyone who’s been able to get involved.
Alex & Kay braved the Palazzo Tower for TDS
We’re now planning for 2025, and if you have any ideas or would like to get involved please get in touch with our Fundraising Officer, Miranda.
Coming up in 2024
 | TDS Memorial WalkWednesday 16 October 2024 This event is about taking a bit of time out to remember our loved ones together. It’s not a fundraising event, but if you are able to come we would love to see you. |
 | Crumpsall Church Christmas FairSaturday 30 November 2024 TDS will be attending the Crumpsall Methodist Church Christmas Fair, and we will be providing refreshments - and a stall that will hopefully include some baking! There will also be a quiet place provided like at the Spring fair earlier this year. We hope you can join us! |
Join us as TDS returns to the city centre for an afternoon of festive music and family fun at the magical Manchester Cathedral.
Acts include
 TDS Dementia Choirs |  Nicola Mills, Soprano |  Crumpsall Show Band |
 Zsuzsi & the Drum Therapy Collective |  All Saints School Singers | Keep checking your updates from TDS to be first in line when tickets go on sale very soon! |
Looking ahead to 2025
Great Bunny Hop 2025
We’d love more schools to hop on board for our next Easter fundraiser. There will be more information to share on the TDS website soon.
Hopping good fun-draising in 2024!
Manchester 10k May 2025
Team TDS is going to be back in action at the Manchester 10k on Sunday 18 May 2025.
If you would like to take part or help cheer on our team, please get in touch with Fundraising Officer, Miranda.
Runners and walkers can registers an early interest now.
Please note: we do not charge an entry fee for runners entering the Manchester 10k with Team TDS. We instead ask that each participant raises a minimum of £100 in sponsorship.
The Great North Swim June 2025
Cold water addicts will be heading to Lake Windermere for the Great North Swim on 14 June 2025. This will be quite a challenge in an amazing location. More details will be available soon, so watch this space!
Trafford Centre Palazzo Tower Abseil June 2025
Inspired by our brave Abseil 2024 team? There will be another opportunity to take on the 172ft Palazzo Tower abseil at the Trafford Centre on the 27 or 28 June 2025. We’ll be opening up registrations soon!
You can take part in the abseil if you are over 11 years of age, but under 16s will need a parent or guardian present to sign consent paperwork on the day itself.
Thank you!
Please share this newsletter and tell people about Together Dementia Support - you never know who might want to help us support more families in Manchester.
