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!

Walking for both my mum & mum-in-law
Friday 26th DecMy mum has recently been diagnosed with mild Alzheimer’s and it’s hard to put into words how it feels to slowly lose the person who raised you, guided you, and shaped so much of who you are. Watching her change while still holding onto the memories of who she’s always been is one of the most difficult journeys I’ve ever faced.
She lives alone (thankfully close by) so I am able to check on her and support her regularly.
My mother-in-law has also been struggling with her memory and has dementia but we’re still awaiting a formal diagnosis.
To anyone else walking this path, please know you’re not alone.
Let’s keep raising awareness, sharing our stories, and holding onto the moments that matter most.
I will be taking my mum out on lots of walks with me over the month and If you feel you could walk with me at any point this January please reach out as it would be wonderful to have your company
💜💜💜💜
