I'm walking 62 miles in May

I’m walking 62 miles in May and raising funds so that families affected by dementia get the specialist help and advice they need. I would be grateful for your support.

An £8 donation can cover the telephone costs of two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

Thank you!

Today’s walk

Tuesday 6th May
Cresswell Bay for a couple of miles along the beach, fantastic

Nearly there

Monday 5th May
I’m now just £10 shy of my increased target of £500 and want to thank everyone for their kind words and support, it means a lot.
The walking is also good and on programme, enjoying the challenge and hopefully I’ll smash the 62 miles with plenty time to go,
Thanks again 🙏

Day 3

Saturday 3rd May
All going well so far, ahead of target 🎯 so I’ve increased my target to £500 !
Received my t shirt and sponsor forms today so updated my photo 😁

First day

Thursday 1st May
Started well but struggled to link my Fitbit to the page to record my mileage, let’s see if it does it overnight otherwise I’ll just add it manually.
Thanks again to all those donations, already exceeded my goal so maybe increase it, early days 🚶
