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!

Challenge completed I’ve walked 50 miles in January

Thursday 29th Jan
Yes I’ve completed the challenge. Despite the weather I managed to find dry days to walk . I’ve enjoyed the challenge getting out in the fresh air when otherwise I’d have been sitting indoors. 
A big thank you to Derek  who has walked many miles with me . To Lynn who  I also walked with. Finally to Linda who is also talking part . We’ve enjoyed walking and  talking (and the soup and scones 😂. )
Thanks again to everyone who has supported myself and Dementia UK. ❤️

Fundraising Goal Achieved 🤩

Thank you all for your support. 
 I’m  not far from completing my 50 miles - hopefully the weather improves for my final 10 miles . 

Busy Two Days

Thursday 22nd Jan
I met Linda at Linlithgow and we walked twice around the loch . It was a lovely day so it didn’t seem like 4.6 miles . 
On Tuesday Derek and I walked through the local park area for lunch . Another 3.2 miles ticked off. 
Thank you again to everyone who has supported me. 

Over halfway

Saturday 17th Jan
I’m enjoying getting out and walking most days . So far I’ve walked a total of 32 miles so I’m on track to complete my challenge. 

Walks to date - 4

Tuesday 6th Jan
I’ve now completed 4 walks as part of my challenge. Total walked so far 9 miles . Today I walked with Linda I enjoyed our walk and talk . Rewarded with a cup of tea and a scone 😊

And I’ve Started

Friday 2nd Jan
Got my challenge started by having a walk on New Year’s Day - 2 miles walked 👍

Why have I decided to take part in this challenge?

Wednesday 31st Dec
A close family friend of Lesley and Lewis is living with dementia. Seeing the impact that this is having on both her and her family I decided to support this worthy cause. 
I hope that you are able to support me in this challenge. 
Thank you
Donna
