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!

Hey everyone, not as many miles done this week as I’d have hoped for due to illness, work and other commitments but still managed to do 10.6 miles bringing the total so far to 27.6miles. Thank you to each and every person who has sponsored and supported me in any way, it means the world 💙

First week ✔️

Friday 9th Jan
Thank you to everyone for the donations, I appreciate each and every one of them ❤️ I’m doing this as you all know in memory of the best man I was lucky enough to have as my daddy who suffered with this cruel, heart breaking disease for the best part of 10 years. Forever praying for a cure to stop other people and families from going through this 💙

Thank you to my Sponsors
