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.
Thank you!

You are just amazing!
Such a worthy and relatable cause ❤️ Dementia/Alzheimer's has such a notable impact on not just the sufferer but also those who care or are in contact with them. What I've witnessed to date with family members, friends, colleagues and also the other direct visits with my late Godfather, Auntie-in-Law and others will never leave my Wife and myself 😪 The Walk of Life indeed! 💕
