Walk 62 Miles in October 2026

Help me reach my goal of £300

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!

Stephens story

Friday 18th Sep
My dad Stephen, was diagnosed with frontal lobe dementia (FTD) in October 2023, at 69 years old. This was two weeks before his 70th birthday.

Since this initial diagnosis, his health has massively deteriorated as well as his memory,  His communication skills  And his ability to live independently. Unfortunately, now he needs one-to-one support from a care team , help with daily tasks to meet his basic needs. My sister and I do our best to meet these requirements, however with a lack of information given by social services we resort to charity such as dementia UK for help and guidance . This is why I am raising money for this charity as they’ve helped me so much over the last year with support groups and advice to be a better advocate for my dad’s continued Care needs. 

Thank you for reading this post and I hope you donate to this cause.
