Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

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, 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 11th Jan
22 miles walked so far. Not bad considering how icy and stormy the weather has been.
Only 28 more to go. 

Walking has begun.

Friday 2nd Jan
I walked 2 miles on 1st January. A gentle start but a good one. 48 to go. Please sponsor if you can. Thank you xxx

Walking begins on Thursday

Wednesday 31st Dec
I’m getting ready to walk my target of 50 miles during January. I’m looking forward to doing something helpful to raise vital funds to help people with dementia and their families. Sadly I have a very close connection to dementia as my mum was diagnosed last year and it’s been a difficult journey for all of us. If you can please spare a little and sponsor me, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

Thank you to my Sponsors
