I'm running 100K for Dementia UK
This February, I'm running 100K 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!

Running for my Dad
Wednesday 7th Jan Hello everyone. Most of you are aware my dad has dementia and recently we made the difficult decision to place him into a care home for his safety and wellbeing as it was becoming too much to care for him at home. Unfortunately on the 4th January he fell and has broken his hip, he has had surgery and is now recovering BUT the surgery and trauma has impacted significantly on his dementia. He didn’t recognise me last night which is a first and absolutely broke my heart. Yes the painkillers may alter his cognition but I know my dad and I know this is a huge blow on his old frail body. We don’t know how the recovery process will unfold for him, personally doing the job I do I don’t think we will see our old dad again. So I’m doing this to raise money for this charity because it means so much to me and my family. So thank you so much to everyone who donates. My knee injury was sustained during an altercation with my dad resulting in a big fall for both of us during his sundowning at 3am one morning in October so it is a personal challenge for me to get my knee in full working order before we start. If he can’t walk I will run for him ❤️ ShareThank you to my Sponsors
