I'm jogging one mile a day for Dementia UK

Some of you may know I’ve acquired some heart issues recently, resulting in me struggling to exercise.  In memory of my dear old dad, and in support of my friend Sue, who has just lost her husband,  I'm going to try and jog one mile each day during April to raise funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. This may not sound much, but it will be a major challenge for me right now.  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. Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £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!
