Could you beat the streets of London for Rotherham's Lost Chord?

A CHARITY which brings sweet music for dementia patients is appealing for runners to follow in the footsteps of this year’s musical marathon marvel.

Luke Carver-Goss took on the marathon challenge for Lost Chord while carrying an accordion.

And the Rotherham charity is now offering supporters the chance to run on its behalf in next year’s London Marathon on April 28 next year.

“This is a fantastic opportunity to get the word about Lost Chord right into the heart of the capital,” said Lost Chord chief executive Helena Muller.

“It's a tough challenge and the person we are looking for to represent us will not only have the level of stamina to complete the route alongside some world class athletes but will also be able to make this a major fundraising success for us too.

“The most important thing is that our runner will know every step they take is making a massive difference to the lives of people living with dementia.

“Let’s use the fact that we can run help those who often have lost the ability to even stand, because of this devastating disease.”
