Hearty thanks and congratulations go out to our stalwart Lewy Body legend, Simon Bone, for riding around the Isle of Wight on his bike in aid of our charity, for an astonishing third year in a row at the beginning of May 2009.

Sisters Denise and Sandra Ifield also successfully completed a 5k run in London in May on our behalf, raising £1000. Further north, Rhea Duff and our very own research student Marzena Kurzawa took part in the Edinburgh marathon on 31 May; an admirable feat in itself made even more memorable by the unprecedented heat in which they had to run it!
