Winter Reading Challenge

Help me reach my goal of £150

I'm doing Winter Reading Challenge for Dementia UK

This winter, I'm reading 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!

14,400 pages for Dad

Tuesday 3rd Nov
I am blown away by all the support people have already showed and I am so so thankful, I’ve already exceeded my donation target, thank you so much🥺 I’ve decided to challenge myself a bit more than just reading to see how far I get over the next couple of months.. 

In the UK, someone develops dementia approximately every three minutes. That’s around 480 people every single day, or 14,400 people a month. So here’s 14,400 pages, one page for dad, one for mum; the strongest people I know and every person living with dementia and all the families & loved ones navigating it ♥️

I’m starting the challenge with Alchemised by SenLinYu and day one started off by reading 63 pages, 14,337 to go📖

Starting off..

Monday 2nd Nov
Starting off strong with Alchemised, currently 16% of the way through, over 700 pages left but lets go

Thank you to my Sponsors
