I'm walking 62 Miles in October for Dementia UK

As some of you may know, my mum has dementia and is currently living in a care home. She is bed-bound, and I cherish every moment I get to spend with her and all the precious memories we have shared together. ❤️

The carers at the care home are amazing, and I’m so incredibly thankful for the love, care and support they give to my mum every day.

So, this October, I’ve decided to take on a challenge that means a lot to me. I’ve accepted the challenge of walking 62 miles for Dementia UK to help raise awareness and vital funds for those living with dementia and their families.

This is going to be a real challenge for me, but knowing I’m doing it for my mum and for so many other families affected by dementia makes it all worthwhile. ❤️

I would be incredibly grateful for any support, whether that’s a donation, sharing my fundraiser, or simply cheering me on along the way. Every little bit will mean so much to me and help make a difference.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
