Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

Hello everyone! 

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 and I 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!

I know it’s only walking but feels good to do it for a purpose, especially one with significance. To my Scotty, the way you’ve handled some of the hardest days so far, I am beyond proud and in awe of you. You are selfless, compassionate, strong, and an absolute rock for your family, I am in awe of the man you are. I’ll be there holding your hand through it all, whatever comes our way. Thank you all so much for the donations, it means the world and I hope that this goes towards the bigger cause 🤍
