Derek, George and George's wife Lynn in Portugal in April 2009
The 59-year-old has taken up the challenge of cycling from Albufeira to Fatima, in Portugal, and hopes to raise £800 for the Alzheimer's Society after losing his brother Derek to the disease in July.
He said: "It will be a tough challenge but it's great to know that I will be raising funds to help support people to live well with dementia today and fund research to find a cure for tomorrow."
