I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 30 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!

Day 23

Wednesday 23rd Sep
Sorry for not updating. I have been walking but forgot to blog.  Tilly and I are really into this challenge now.   Thankyou to everyone who is supporting me either walking with me or donating. 

Day 3 A little walk today

Thursday 3rd Sep
Today Tilly and I did a short walk round the village. My strava was being problematic. We went up to my Dads grave and told him about our challenge. He would have supported  this. On the way back i  ended up popping in to El Camino and signing up to a Spanish class.   Adios until tomorrow.

First Day

Tuesday 1st Sep
Tilly and I have just completed our first walk for dementia uk. We have planned another 2 for tomorrow. If anyone fancies joining me on our walk anytime just message me.
Just to be clear we are walking at least 1 mile every day . Not 30 miles in one go. 
September was Dads birthday month and instead of putting flowers on his grave which will not last I want to raise as much as possible to help support this incredible charity  and help other people and families.

Thank you to my Sponsors
