Betty's Bash for dementia

A CHARITY dinner is to be held in the Capital to raise money to help people with dementia.

The dinner at the Macdonald Roxburghe Hotel is being hosted by meeting room firm ExecSpace on September 15 in aid of Alzheimer Scotland.

The event is named Betty's Bash after ExecSpace director Emma Little's grandmother, who suffered from Alzheimer's.

It is hoped that around 10,000 can be raised to directly fund activities and breaks that provide respite and support for sufferers and their carers. Tickets are 60 each, and are available by e-mailing [email protected]
