Walk 31 Miles in May 2026

I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK

Hello! This May I wanted a challenge, and I couldn't think of a better cause. I know a lot of families who are being affected by this disease, so it's very close to home for me. I did this years ago, and I'm doing it again now! I will try to post updates throughout the month, if you can donate anything at all to ease the pain caused by such a horrendous condition I would be hugely grateful. Thank you, let's do this!

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 6 Completed!

Wednesday 6th May
Today I took a beautiful walk in the south downs on Old Winchester Hill. It was a lovely day and I had some stunning views. Managed to add 3 miles on! See you tomorrow for the one week milestone. 

DAY 5 Completed!

Tuesday 5th May
Today I was at college for the most of the day so I could only fit in a short walk, but it was just as great. I'm up to 14 miles so far, and over halfway to my fundraising goal. See you tomorrow!!! 

DAY 4 Completed!

Monday 4th May
Today I took a walk through London, it was a wonderful walk and I saw a lot of beautiful sights and vibrant people. I'm racking up the miles, see you all tomorrow :))

DAY 3 Completed!

Sunday 3rd May
Today was a more grey day, but I still managed to get out and have a lovely walk around my local lakes. It was a perfect temperature for walking, see you tomorrow :))

DAY 2 Completed!

Saturday 2nd May
Today I was at work in Winchester, I walked a lot, it was a beautiful day with a bit of rain at the end. Very productive day 2 in my eyes :).
