Friday 5th Sep Day 5, and 3.13 miles in. If you read my updates you will have seen I was very silly and walked 8.2 miles in a pair of sandals. Not my brightest idea, and now suffering with a very bruised heel. Oh well you live and learn! 🤣 As always, massive thanks to everyone who has supported my throughout this worthy cause. It's amazing not only to raise money for Dementia UK, but also awareness, so thank you ♥️ Share

1st September 2025

Monday 1st Sep Day 1 of my Walk 30 miles in September challenge. I'd had a busy day at work, so the majority of my walk was later evening. I'd actually forgotten how beautiful Lossiemouth is during sunset. I completed 5.59 miles, not bad for my first real physical activity after major surgery. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to my fundraiser. Share

Walking 30 Miles This September for a Cause Close to My Heart

Wednesday 20th Aug

​This September, I’m taking on a personal challenge to walk 30 miles to fundraise for Dementia UK. This isn’t just about putting one foot in front of the other; it's about supporting a cause that means a great deal to me and to so many others.

​Dementia UK is a charity that provides specialist dementia support to families through its Admiral Nurses. These nurses are a lifeline for people affected by dementia, offering expert guidance and practical solutions. Having seen the impact of dementia on families, I know how crucial this support is.

​My challenge will involve walking 30 miles throughout the month of September. Whether it's a brisk morning walk, a long hike on the weekend, or simply a stroll to the shops, every mile will bring me closer to my fundraising goal. It’s a way for me to honor the resilience of those living with dementia and the tireless efforts of their caregivers.

​I'm aiming to raise £300 to help Dementia UK continue their incredible work. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a tangible difference. It could help provide a helpline call with a specialist nurse, offer a home visit, or simply give a family the support they need to navigate a difficult journey.

​If you can, please consider supporting my challenge by donating through my fundraising page. Your generosity will not only motivate me to keep going but will also directly help families facing dementia.

​Thank you for your support. Let's walk this journey together, one mile at a time.
