I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK

This May, I'm walking 31 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!

Sunday 31st May
I have walked a total of 34.51 miles across the month of May. The target was 31 miles (the idea of 1 mile each day), but with some days doing more than that and some doing none, I am happy with the outcome! As well as regular exercise and better choices to walk, it has been important to me to keep it up for raising money for Dementia UK. I did the September and February events, and will happily take part in future ones. Any encouragement or donations along the way are very much appreciated!
