Walk 62 Miles in October 2026

I'm walking 62 Miles in October for Dementia UK

This October, I'm walking 62 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!

My Updates

Im determined to keep going!

Wednesday 4th Nov
Ive not "walked" anywhere for quite some time. My health (or lack of it) had me beaten for a while. 
Infections before my holiday then came home with food poisoning  (only me eh??) and massive fatigue after that. Anyway, enough whining. 
I WILL GET TO 62 MILES! It might take me a long time but im determined im not gonna leave it. So, started today with a wee 2 miler amd will update as and when I can. The page might close as the challenge is officially ended but im keeping on it so will post to Facebook.  Onwards & upwards ❤️

The Ups and Downs of Being Me

Monday 12th Oct
Started this challenge great guns, had a wee dip in health (surprisingly) then went on holiday dull of big plans to walk baby walk! My walking app didn't work abroad so Bob did a step counter and I totalled 27 miles!! Funny how far u can walk on a cruise ship when u know they have cake....

3 walks done!

Saturday 26th Sep
That's me done 3 walks which is excellent considering I would have used the car for those journeys.  I will carry on to get out as much as I can. Onwards and upwards!! 

Started my series of walks!

Friday 25th Sep
Ive now completed 2 walks, much to the protestations of my wonky foot! 
Will persevere! 
Ive walked in Ardrossan  & West kilbride so next destination will be different to stimulate the old grey matter as well. Onwards and upwards! Clare
