I'm jogging one mile a day for Dementia UK

This April, I'm jogging one mile each day 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!

Enjoying Jogging for Such a Great Cause!

Saturday 5th Apr
At the end of March I managed to finish Couch to 5K challenge. Straight away I began to think about my next goal and just then I came across the Dementia U.K. Jog 1 Mile a Day for Dementia in April. The subject of dementia is very close to me as I used to work with people affected by dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. It was an amazing job but also very painful to see how much both were affecting the elderly patients  who weee not able to recognise their loved ones.  The families were brave although heartbroken. 
For this reason I chose to take up the challenge as I truly admire those who courageously and lovingly  look after their mothers, fathers and grandparents.  It must often feel like a very lonely  place if you have no one to talk to.  Thank you, Admiral nurses  for the support you offer. ❤️
