Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

Help me reach my goal of £400

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

As I enter my 65th year I am embarking on new life journeys, and challenges taking me out of my comfort zone.
So.... to kick start the year I am taking on this challenge not only to raise funds, but also raise awareness of the amazing support that Dementia UK provides. 

My mum and mum-in-law had dementia and Dementia UK were a great help to us. 

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!

Homeward stretch!

Saturday 24th Jan
A big push this weekend to knock off some decent miles. I have 18 to go and 7 days to meet my target.  
I have a walk planned this afternoon and a good friend is coming along to keep me company, which will be nice. She's already donated too. 
Definitely worth the effort  and a payback for all the support we received when caring for my mum and mum-in-law.

why I'm here.
