Jenn&Robs Walking For Nan & Grandad 💜

I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK For Nan & Grandad <3

💜 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK 💜

This September, my 8-year-old son Robin and I will be walking 30 miles for Dementia UK.

This challenge is deeply personal to us.
In September 2025, we sadly lost my Nan, Robin's beloved Nan-Nan, to dementia. Like so many families affected by this cruel disease, we experienced first-hand the heartbreak of watching someone we love slowly change through dementia.
Our journey with dementia did not end there.
Robin's Grandad-Grandad, my Grandad, is currently living in a care home with dementia. Every day, we see the impact this condition has not only on the person living with it, but on the family who loves them.

One of my favourite memories is from 2018, when my Nan and Grandad celebrated 60 years of marriage. Sixty years of love, memories, family, laughter and life together. Dementia may affect memories, but it can never take away the love and legacy they built over those six decades.

When I told Robin I was taking part in the challenge, he didn't hesitate to join me. In his words:
"I'm walking 30 miles with my mum because dementia took my Nan-Nan to the Stars, my Grandad-Grandad is living with dementia in a care home. I want to help other people going through the same thing.
Every mile we walk is for them. Thank you for supporting us."
❤️ Robin, aged 8

Every mile we walk will be for Nan-Nan, for Grandad-Grandad, and for every family facing the challenges of dementia.
If you would like to support us, we would be incredibly grateful for any donation, no matter how big or small.
