Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

Help me reach my goal of £500

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

This January, I'm walking 50 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!

Why I am walking for dementia uk

Saturday 10th Jan
9 months ago I lost my sister to the effects of Frontal Temporal Dementia - a form of the disease known as young onset,  that robbed her of the ability to articulate. We didn’t know if she could understand as she was unable to respond. In the early stages being unable to name nouns - like sheep and tree. Initially she could say “look at those little one (lambs) “  - “there aren’t as many big ones (sheep)” . Gradually even that attempt at conversation left her and mostly she was only able to say ‘yes and no’  - it was so tough. Then her body started to let her down and she went from being very active, walking, cycling and doing everyday tasks, to becoming unable do much at all. 
My brother in law did an amazing job of caring beautifully for my sister at home, right to the very end.

Our mother had vascular dementia in her last 3 years of  her life.. Thankfully our dad managed with my sister’s help to look after her at home.

My mother in law had Alzheimer’s for the last 6 years of her life. We did our best to care for her until it became dangerous for her to be left alone and she had to be looked after in a care home. Thankfully between the family we were able to visit her everyday for 3years.  All so very heartbreaking, people I loved dearly and miss greatly. 💖
Please help support this very worthy cause as more and more people living longer will be plagued by Dementia. Thank you so much ☺️
