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.  My Aunty Chrissie (mums sister) she is on the left in the photo on my profile pic has been diagnosed with Vascular Dementia, it’s the most awful illness and very sad to see someone going through this. She is being very well looked after at a nursing home in Inverness but it can be so upsetting to see her when she is frightened and unsure what is going on around her. 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!
