Raising money and awareness for Alzheimer's
Robyn and her best friend and business partner Margaret started Prime Appointments together and spent the first 14 years working closely together. Then at the age of just 50 Margaret received the devastating news that she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
"She has slowly disappeared before our own eyes and now 16 years later she is living 24/7 in a care home, her life which was so full of energy and dynamism has tragically been slowly taken from her and us," says Robyn.
"Margaret cannot now walk or talk but I am happy to report that I visit her each week and she still recognises my voice, and I can always make her laugh and smile and I feel a huge connection with her still. This experience and connection are enough for me to never want to lose hope that as some point there will be a cure for this terrible disease."
