I'm running 62 Miles in October

I’m running 62 Miles in October and raising funds so that families affected by dementia get the specialist help and advice they need. I would be grateful for your support.

An £10 donation can cover the telephone costs of two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

Thank you!

1st run of the campaign

Thursday 2nd Oct
Aimed to do a 10k and 10mins into the run and my sciatica is pinging like mad!🤦🏼‍♀️ but just keep kept going. A solid 5k done. Thought of walk home but kept running…

Each time I go out.....

This month, I'm walking but will end up running, 62 miles (at least  - I want to push myself more this month).  If I can achieve my goal and with your donations, it all helps to understanding more about dementia and supporting those who need it.
When I'm running to think about the good times, and reflect and find the inner strength to help, support my family in my own way....but its much harder than one thinks...

Back again....

The impact this disease has on so many is staggering, seeing it almost daily is heart-breaking. How quickly lives can change is something I have really struggled to get my head round.
It still seems like it was just a few days that we were round the dinner table, laughing, chatting and the following week, it was a very very different story....this was last June (2024) Since then Mum is.... I struggle to put it into words really....but i miss her, even though I see her often..
