Let's Get Walking B.C.!
Join people in communities across the province this Sunday to honour or remember special people in your life who have been touched by Alzheimer's disease or other dementias.
By participating in the Walk, you raise awareness about this disease and help ensure that Alzheimer Society of B.C. programs and services are available for the more than 70,000 British Columbians who are living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias.
