I'm running 100K for Dementia UK

This February, I'm running 100K 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. Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £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!

Friday 14th Feb
I've just had over £150 combined with cash and online donations from residents and staff at my work for my walk. 
I've challenged myself to walk from my home address to London Bridge station TOMORROW. It's estimated 17K, it will be a walk but it will be tough and take me about 4 years 😂😂

I will upload my evidence! 

I did 1.99K today, will add to my total tomorrow with evidence of both walks.

Another 2.5K down

Another 2.5K down, the site doesn't let me upload 0.5 so will add into my next time!

Just completed a 5K on the treadmill, sweating absolute buckets. I nearly didn't tonight, but was so touch by all the encouragement and donations - thank you everyone 🙏

First 2K

Monday 3rd Feb
I have completed my first 2K and oh my god that was hard! I am so unfit so the fact I did 2K of running and speed walking is so insane. Only 98k to go!

My Why

Sunday 2nd Feb
I am running – yes, RUNNING – 100k in February for Dementia UK. I’m doing this for my Dad, who has been living with dementia and whose journey has deeply affected me. Watching him struggle with his memory and the person he once was has been heartbreaking, but it has also made me more determined to help raise awareness and support. I'm also running for all of the residents I currently work with, those I’ve worked with in the past, and their families who have been affected by this heartbreaking disease. Dementia is often seen as a natural part of aging, but I believe we can do better. I’m running with hope for a cure.

I will post as often as I can updating on my running journey - I have a treadmill at home and will post proof of each run big or small. This is so I can complete this challenge alongside day to day life ❤️
