I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 30 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!

The first days.

Friday 4th Sep
Just to be completely honest, walking 30 miles sounds pretty easy on paper. However, courtesy of an old football injury, I have an arthritic knee. Getting started is tough, and I need to feel confident my body can actually take it. Taking the first step requires a proper bit of determination.

​Then I remind myself: this is such a minor challenge compared to what my mother-in-law and millions like her face every day. Imagine losing all essence of time—remembering childhood in vivid detail, yet forgetting to drink something as vital as a cup of water.

​Raising any amount over my target feels like a personal win, but much more importantly, it provides crucial funds for families living through this every single day. Let's join together and do whatever we can to support everyone affected.

Thank you to my Sponsors

Great cause Andy and one that touches so many people and families. I’m sure every penny you raise will help us rid the planet of this disease. The Rothwell Pirates will give a little too…
