I'm walking 62K with my dog for Dementia UK
My lovely grandma Dorothy is living with dementia. Not only is it devastating to see someone you love be taken slowly by this disease, but It’s been so hard seeing my mum have to deal with the heartache attached to losing her Mumma before she’s even left us physically. She still has her cheeky attitude, and loves a cuppa, but shes completely bed ridden and lost the ability to do anything herself.
This March, I'm walking 62K with my dog 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, by offering practical solutions and emotional support to cope with their loved one’s distressed behaviour.
Thank you! 🩷
Lovely idea Charlotte. I remember Dorothy fondly xx
