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.
Both my parents have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in the last two years and life has changed significantly for all of us. My brother Jonathan and I work together to support mum and dad on a daily basis, and with their fantastic carers in place it means they are still living in their own home. I'm doing this challenge to raise awareness and hopefully some money towards providing support for families living with dementia. I also hope to improve my own mental health by getting out more, and fresh air and exercise!
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.
If you have already donated via my brother Jonathan that's amazing, thank you!!!
Thank you!
