Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

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 but a £5 would also very much be appreciated. 

Thank you!

A new avenue

Monday 26th Jan
I seem to walk about rather than go for a walk on certain days ….. today was in High Wycombe…. I did think about photos but I couldn’t find anything  interesting (for me) .  I did add another mile …… positive …. I will take what I can get…. 

Ongoing efforts

I ice and cold and life have stopped me walking as
Much as I would have liked but when out average about 2
Miles - still plenty of time to reach my 50 mile goal by the end of January.  

Thank you to all of you who have sponsored me - it really does mean a lot to me.

I took the dog and I was going to walk alone - I met a friend on route and we chatted and Jenson found a lot of new friends to sniff!  I walked 1.7 miles and it took forever with wee stops and sniffs (and as for the dog).   So we shall see what tomorrow brings - thank you for your support x
