I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK in memory of my Dad Bazza ❤️
This May, I'm walking 31 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!

Walking to raise money for dementia uk… here’s why!
Tuesday 26th May If any of you have been touched by dementia then you’ll understand how gruelling and tricky the situation can be. My lovely dad Bazza was the kindest, most caring person you’d ever meet. Sadly he was diagnosed with vascular dementia not long after Covid and it was a 5 year battle against a scary disease that basically destroys the brain. You’ve probably heard that advert about losing a loved one ‘again, and again, and again’ and that’s exactly what it was like. I’d say it was a grieving process throughout this time for everyone that knew him as we literally saw him disappearing in front of our eyes. I will say one thing though, he still has his sense of humour right to the very end 😊… I love walking and albeit with my dodgy foot and plantar fasciitis I have asked the 31 miles out of the park and some over double that so I’m hoping to keep going until Sunday and go out with a bang 💥 thanks to all of you who have sponsored me already… it means a lot Kx ShareThank you to my Sponsors
