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!

4.44 miles down. Finding time for these miles is harder than first thought. But I’ll get there!

September is here!

Hi all! 👋 
September has arrived and along with it, the challenge to walk 30miles for Dementia UK. 
Just 1 mile per day for the whole month sounds like a breeze  - and for many it wouldn’t even be noticed. However, I want to be ‘present’ during the time I allocate to my walks. So,  these miles must be away from my usual daily routines. 
If you know me well, you’ll know my days are full enough as it is. Finding this time is going to be nothing short of a miracle! - But if there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s making things happen. This will be no different! 

I can always walk through the night (who needs sleep anyway!😆)

I’ll be logging my walks with Strava. If I can work out how to share the data here I will. I’ll definitely keep you updated  one way or the other.

If you haven’t yet, and of course only if you’re able, please take a moment to sponsor me and help me reach my target.  Finally, please share my challenge  info amongst your friends and family. They might just be able to help.🙂

Thank you to everyone that has donated so far! 

Huge thanks!

Thank you to all that have donated towards this cause so far. Apart from it being extremely close to home for my family and I , this illness affects so so many people. Far too many to even comprehend! 

We all know someone with a diagnosis. It’s almost impossible not to. Whether that be a direct family member or that of someone else you know. 

I’ll keep you all posted on my progress throughout September. (Goes without saying, I will not be walking 30 miles in one day!🤣🤣)

Thank you to my Sponsors
