November Knitting Challenge 2026

Help me reach my goal of £150

I'm knitting everyday in November for Dementia UK

This November, I'm taking on the Dementia UK November Knitting Challenge by knitting every day and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone.

Dementia affects millions of people, changing lives in ways that can be overwhelming and heartbreaking. That's why I'm supporting Dementia UK, the specialist dementia nursing charity. Their Admiral Nurses provide expert advice, practical support and compassionate guidance to families when they need it most.

Just £33 could fund a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour supporting a family, helping them understand their options, cope with difficult situations and feel less alone.

Thank you for helping me make a difference this November. Your support means so much. 💙

So many Goodbyes

Sunday 18th Oct
My lovely mum passed away on 14th October 2024 from the Dementia, having lived with it for so many years.I watched  her lose different parts of her over time.
Slowly bit by bit she disappeared right before my eyes. 
I was lucky to be able see mum most days. However,  everytime I said "bye mum, see you tomorrow ." I wondered what mum would be like the next day.
Would she still remember me ?
Would she be able to still do a puzzle ?
Could I still get her outside to sit in the garden?
Would she be able to pick up and drink or swallow her food... The list goes on and on.
Sadly the last few tears of her life were bedridden.  Until she finally she was released from this awful disease.
I was with mum at the end.
Watching someone you love die especially a parent who has been a constant in your life is heartbreaking 💔 
That was the Final Goodbye.
Two years on I now have the strength to give something back to this amazing charity. 
I am going to knit everyday in November. 
If you are able, please support me by donating to Dementia U.K.
Thank you
