Bondi2Berry / Dementia Research Community

The Bondi2Berry ride in September starting in Bondi travelling 155km along the coast and finish in beautiful Berry raising funds for a cure for dementia. Organisers Nick and and Pierre have witnessed first hand the effects of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Pierre's mother was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease and Nick's father was diagnosed in 2011. Nick's grandmother passed away after suffering with the disease for more than 10 years. The strain placed on family and close friends is debilitating in itself. Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia. It is a collection of symptoms that are caused by disorders affecting the brain, it is not one specific disease. There is no cure. Currently there are more than 350, 000 Australians living with dementia. Without a major breakthrough in research, the figure is expected to soar to 900, 000 by 2050This prompted the guys to try and make a difference, and use their passion for bike riding to raise awareness and funds to help get a breakthrough in researching for a cure.
