BRACE is a registered charity that funds research into Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
Their role is to help medical science understand the causes of dementia, find ways of diagnosing it earlier and more accurately, and develop more effective treatments. Ultimately, they want to help science beat dementia.
They raise funds through voluntary donations, sponsorship, legacies and fundraising events.
They spend that money by supporting research at universities in the West of England and South Wales. All the research they support has been peer reviewed and assessed by a committee that includes senior scientists.

November 2014.

Thermae Bath Spa.

One of the most interesting commissions that Marko regularly receives is to photograph for the Thermae Bath Spa.
Having used the Spa on many occasions-a fantastic way to wind down after a long day of photography, Marko considers himself an "Expert" on this fabulous place and his "in-depth" knowledge is put to great use thinking of interesting new ways to light the various treatments to show them at their luxurious best!
It also helps when the marketing team of Peter,Charlotte and Alex are always looking for a creative solution to their brief. Additionally all the staff at the Thermae Bath Spa are always incredibly helpful.
Below here are some of the latest images showing various treatments including the couple's massage...
