💙 Why I’m Doing This — Raising Awareness for Dementia

I’m taking on this challenge to raise money for Dementia UK, a charity doing such important work supporting families affected by dementia.

Dementia is something that can touch any family, at any time. It doesn’t matter where you come from, how old you are, or what your circumstances are — there is a very real possibility that one day, someone you love could be affected.

I’ve seen how dementia can impact not just the person living with it, but their whole family. It can bring uncertainty, worry, exhaustion and so many emotions that families often have to navigate together.

And behind every diagnosis is a person — a mum, dad, grandparent, partner, sibling or friend — and a family trying to find their way through something they never expected to face.

That’s why I’ve decided to do this.

I want to play my small part in helping Dementia UK provide specialist support to families when they need it most. No one should have to feel that they are facing dementia alone.

My fundraising goal is £250, and every donation, no matter how big or small, will help.

Because dementia could affect any one of us, or someone we love.

💙 If you can spare anything at all, please consider sponsoring me.

Thank you for supporting me and, more importantly, for supporting the families who may one day need Dementia UK. 💙
