Chels Steps Away

Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

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!

So proud of myself and grateful for those who have supported and sponsored me. Asking for help & support is something that usually cringes me out so I defo stepped out of my comfort zone for this one but my sponsors really showed out for me🫶🏾🥹 I’m glad I done this at the beginning of the year because it was definitely an eye opener and I’ve learnt so much about dementia, myself and others 😌 #dementia #januarychallenge #thankyou #awareness

My professional begging has paid off. 😅😅 Thank you so much everyone who has supported me and I’m still accepting donations. Even if it’s £1/ £2 it still means something to me to know that you’ve considered and supported me aswell as the charity 🫶🏾🥹 #dementiasucks #dementiaawareness #sponsoredwalk @Dementia UK

Walk it Like I Talk it

Wednesday 17th Dec
Dementia isn’t something that I understand and I don’t think that I ever will. But what I do know is that it’s a heartbreaking condition. 
You see the person you once knew so well turn into almost a stranger. 
You learn to just go with the flow and repeat yourself constantly just so that you can carry on the conversation with the person you love, who soon may not even know who you are. 
Walking to raise money might not make much difference but it is the least I can do to help. 
 Times are hard so I understand not everyone can donate but spreading awareness and reposting is free. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
