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!

1st walk completed.

Thursday 1st Oct
I am aiming to do 2 miles a day, every day for the the next 31 days. I am hoping to make it past the 62 mile mark and raise as much money as possible for dementia UK! 

Tonight, I took Hulk out as my walking partner to get my first few miles in. We completed 3.16 miles and met a stray cow on our travels. Everyone passing by stopped to help the cow find it's way back to it's family. After about 10 minutes, the cow finally made it over the fence and was reunited. 

The weather was gorgeous and what a gorgeous first charity walk it was! ❤️

GOAL COMPLETE!!

Friday 25th Sep
Thank you to all my wonderful family and friends for all your amazing donations! We have reached the original goal I had set to raise for the charity so I have set the goal higher!! 

I can't wait to start walking on the 1st October to complete the 62 miles in memory of my Nan ❤️
And to everyone who said they want to join me for a walk or two...... Get your walking shoes, coats and flasks at the ready because it's only 5 days left until we start 🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️

Get Ready, get set, walkkkkkkkk 💃🏼🥰
