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.

So far this year, I have read 48 books, making the 60 book target I set at the beginning of the year more of an inevitability. So, having started the Winter Reading Challenge for Dementia UK, I have updated my reading goal for 2026 to 80 books. 

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!
