How am I doing so far?

Saturday 25th Oct
Not great!

So... of the 25 days in October so far, I have only managed to log walking 5 of those days, totalling 16.67 miles to date. 

This means I have just 6 days left to walk and log 45.33 miles - roughly 8 miles a day. So this feels like a good time to start asking for donations and support to help get me over the line!


Wish me luck!

62 Miles for Dementia UK

Wednesday 22nd Oct

Hi everyone, 

I’m walking 62 miles in October for Dementia UK.

Dementia UK are a specialist dementia nursing charity for the whole family. Their nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, life-changing support and advice to anyone affected by dementia. Raising funds and awareness means that families affected by dementia get the specialist help and advice they need.

Walking 62 miles in a month is obviously not about breaking any fitness records, but for someone mainly strapped to a laptop (and a sloth), it’s a way for me to commit to doing something to help raise awareness for Dementia UK and support the important work that they do.

Dementia UK don’t receive any government funding and so it’s because of donations from fundraising like this that they’re able to run, and grow, the vital services so that no one faces dementia alone. £10 can cover the telephone costs of two families seeking support through their free Helpline. £33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

I know it’s a difficult time to be asking for donations, and I really appreciate anyone who takes a moment to read this. The suggested amounts on this page are quite high - unfortunately, I can’t change them - but please don’t feel pressured!! Every bit of support makes a difference. Whether you can spare a couple of pounds, share this page, or help spread the word about Dementia UK’s incredible work, it all helps raise awareness and support for families affected by dementia. 

Thank you so much,

Emma X
