November Knitting Challenge 2026

I'm knitting everyday in November for Dementia UK

This November, I'm taking on the Dementia UK November Knitting Challenge by knitting every day and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone.

Dementia affects millions of people, changing lives in ways that can be overwhelming and heartbreaking. That's why I'm supporting Dementia UK, the specialist dementia nursing charity. Their Admiral Nurses provide expert advice, practical support and compassionate guidance to families when they need it most.

Just £33 could fund a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour supporting a family, helping them understand their options, cope with difficult situations and feel less alone.

Thank you for helping me make a difference this November. Your support means so much. 💙

We've smashed our target already! 💜

Thursday 29th Oct


It's not even the 1st of November yet and we've already smashed our original fundraising target for Dementia UK 💜

I honestly didn't expect us to reach it before the challenge had even started. 

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated and shared the page so far. It really does mean a lot.

Elizabeth hasn't even started her knitting challenge yet, so let's see how much more we can raise throughout November 🤞🏼

Thank you again to everyone for being so kind and generous. Mum is at the heart of all of this, which makes the support even more special. 💜

A Little Christmas Cheer for Mum 💜🎄

Tuesday 27th Oct

Elizabeth is very kindly taking on the Dementia UK Knitting Challenge this November in honour of my mum. 💜

She's decided to make it Christmas themed and will be knitting decorations for the residents at Mum's care home, hopefully bringing a few smiles and a little festive cheer. 🎄🧶

Such a thoughtful thing to do, and I'm really grateful. Thank you, Elizabeth, and to everyone supporting her along the way. ❤️
