Ruth Walmsley, who helped organise the event, said: "It was a great success: we were absolutely delighted with the support and generosity of staff right across the University and raised the huge total of £856!  Alzheimer’s Society was the chosen Charity of the Year within the AHSS Faculty Office for 2017-18 and we will present a cheque for the total amount raised during the year to a representative from the Society on 27 June".
