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!

Halfway there day 4….

Sunday 4th Jan
Bit of a rest day today as so far ive done 26.6 miles…..im gonna try and do as many as i can.

1800 steps is 1 mile!

Thursday 1st Jan
Working out my step rate into miles - 1800 is 1 mile so todays tally (14000) so far is 7.7 miles- strong start but maybe best pace myself!

Happy new year!

Thursday 1st Jan
Solid start with 10000 steps before noon- not too shabby for a New Years day….aiming for 10-15000 per day.
