A group of netballers from Winchburgh Warriors Netball Club (Stacia, Kerri, Gail, Leah, Beka, Paige, Maria and Elisha) recently took on the 7 Hills of Edinburgh challenge.

They set off at 9am to cover Arthur’s Seat, Blackford Hill, Braids Hill, Easter Craiglockhart, Corstorphine Hill, Castle Hill and Calton Hill! It took them just over 7.5 hours and they covered over 27km in what was a very hot day but everyone had a great time!

Thank you to everyone involved for your support and raising over £600 from your challenge for Alzheimer's Research UK 🧡👏

"A humble, funny, reflective play that takes us from the present day to the 1970’s when times were hard but laughs were easy to come by. We meet the Wednesday Gang and follow their hilarious adventures whilst we respectfully highlight the challenges of domestic abuse, poverty and dementia.

We begin our story in a care home where we hear how Flo struggles with the challenges of ageing and losing her independence. We are then catapulted back to the 1970’s where we meet Flo’s pals, the Wednesday Gang following their crazy adventures!!

We finish back at the care home where we highlight the struggles with dementia and the sheer and utter value of friendship. A play absolutely worth seeing, if only to hear music from the 60’s and 70’s, laugh your socks off and be uplifted at the end with an amazing show of unity, friendship and trust."

Most people don’t know this: you can reduce your risk of dementia.

Almost half of dementia cases around the world could be prevented or delayed by addressing 14 everyday health and lifestyle factors, according to the latest Lancet Commission report, part-funded by Alzheimer’s Research UK.

The good news? You don’t need to change everything.
Small changes can make a real difference.

- Stay sharp.
- Love your heart.
- Keep connected.
