Jordan and Cian Adams, known as the FTD Brothers, are currently running 32 consecutive marathons to bring attention to Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). The brothers were deeply affected by the disease after their mother passed away from it at the age of 52. Their efforts have gained significant recognition, including praise from The Prince of Wales, who commended their courage, determination, and resilience.
In a letter, Prince Charles highlighted how their challenge exemplifies remarkable strength by converting personal adversity into hope for others. The FTD Brothers have been actively fundraising for years, having already amassed millions for dementia research and support. Jordan Adams previously ran the London Marathon while carrying a 25kg fridge, symbolizing the immense weight of the disease they and their family carry.
