I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK
This May, I'm walking 31 Miles and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. I'm taking on the challenge for Dementia UK, the specialist dementia nursing charity, and would be grateful for your support.
Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £33 could fund a new dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour helping a family in the community, offering practical solutions and emotional support to cope with their loved one’s distressed behaviour.
Thank you!

Dementia is a cruel disease that eats away at the person, and those around them. As i can also relate to the pain it has caused me and my family. It isn’t a life-changing sum, but it carries a weight of memory, and a quiet kind of gratitude for what you’re choosing to do. When I saw you’re taking on 31 miles for a dementia charity, it felt right to contribute, even in a small way. Because this isn’t just about distance or endurance—it’s about showing up. It’s about refusing to look away from something that affected you and so many families quietly, behind closed doors. I hope the miles are kind to you. And I hope, in some small way, this helps carry you along the road. Thank you for doing it.
