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.

Thank you!

Why am I doing this?

Thursday 11th Dec
Our dad was diagnosed  with dementia with Lewy bodies in July 2025. He was  a  fit ,active, kind and  gentle individual . He is a husband, dad, grandad, great grandad, and uncle to our family.  Sadly 2 days after his dementia diagnosis he suffered a heart attack and was hospitalised for 5 days developing  a delirium.  In  such a short period of time he has become  a shadow of his former self and it’s been devastating for our entire family.  
I urge you to donate and support this charity,  to one day find a cure ,  provide effective care and  support for every person who needs it. 
Thanks for reading.
