At Rigby Financial, we believe in giving back.
Every year, our team chooses a charity to support, and we’re proud to have Alzheimer’s Society as our charity partner for 2026.
Alzheimer’s Society does incredible work supporting people living with dementia, funding life-changing research, and providing help to families and carers when they need it most. With dementia affecting so many individuals and loved ones, this cause is close to many of our hearts.
Throughout the year, we’ll be raising awareness, fundraising, challenging ourselves… and hopefully having plenty of laughs along the way!
We’ll keep this page updated with our fundraising efforts, so check back regularly for more information. You can also stay up-to-date via our socials:
About dementia
Dementia isn’t a normal part of ageing. It’s caused by physical disease – and that means we can do something about it!
- There are currently around a million people living with dementia in the UK
- One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime
- In the UK someone develops dementia every 3 minutes
Alzheimer’s Society is the only dementia charity in the UK that funds all types of dementia research to understand the underlying causes of dementia through to clinical and care research.
- Visit the Alzheimer’s Society website for more information and advice.
Donate now
We plan to work hard to raise funds…but there’s no need to wait for our latest fundraiser to show your support! You can donate now – or at any point throughout the year – via our JustGiving page.
Thank you!
Fundraising activities
Maureen’s March Swimathon
Our staff are always willing to go the extra mile…or in Maureen’s case the extra miles!
As part of our team efforts this year to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society, Maureen has set herself the challenge of swimming 200 lengths in March – the swim equivalent in terms of effort to running a half-marathon!
The aim is to complete the challenge over 4 early mornings, 6.30am-7.30am, on Tuesday 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th March.
- ALL within 4 hours
- ALL before a full day of work, and
- ALL to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer’s Society
Phew! Maureen, we salute you…and we promise to have a strong brew and biccies ready and waiting for when you get to the office.
