AN inspirational cyclist from Carterton will speak at a national conference.

Chris Graham will speak at Headway Suffolk’s Neuro Conference in October, discussing his experience with early-onset dementia.

The 41-year-old cycled 16,000 miles around the coast of Canada and America in 2015, raising £52,000 for Alzheimer’s Research UK and ABF The Soldiers Charity.

The former British Army soldier, a father-of-three, was diagnosed with the condition at the age of 34.

His father, aunt, cousin and granddad had the same condition. He will be joined by his wife at the conference in East Anglia.
