I'm walking 62K with my dog for Dementia UK

This March, I'm walking 62K with my dog, Lola, and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. Sadly my gran was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia a couple of years ago and it has been a rollercoaster navigating the challenges and changes in her behaviour and mood.  Charities like Dementia UK really help provide helpful changes we can make in her day to day life to keep her safe and to deal with this cruel disease. 

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 in the community, offering practical solutions and emotional support to cope with their loved one’s distressed behaviour.

Thank you!
