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. £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!

For My Grandmother 🤍
Sunday 1st FebThis February, I’m taking on the challenge of running 100 kilometres to raise funds for Dementia UK.
This isn’t just a challenge for me — it’s deeply personal.
My grandmother was one of the most important people in my life. She loved me fiercely, believed in me endlessly, and being cared for by her was one of the safest, warmest parts of my childhood. Watching dementia slowly take her away was the biggest heartbreak I’ve ever known.
Dementia is cruel. It takes people long before it takes their bodies.
Alongside this challenge, I’m now working full-time as a researcher in dementia studies trying, in my own way, to understand this illness better and contribute to a future where fewer families have to experience this pain.
By donating to my page, you’re helping Dementia UK support families, reduce isolation, and improve quality of life for people living with dementia and those who care for them. Every donation no matter the size helps keep expert support by families’ sides when they need it most.
This run is for my grandmother.
I hope I can make her proud.
Thank you so much for any support 🤍
