I'm walking 62 Miles in October

I’m walking 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!

Week 2…

Sunday 12th Oct

This week has been a bit of a blur - juggling a lot, feeling exhausted, and barely moving. The days have flown by, and I have spent most of the week just trying to keep up with everything else life has thrown my way.


Normally, taking the dog out for a walk, popping on an audiobook, and just switching off from the world is one of my favourite parts of the day. It is my space to breathe, reset, and do something positive. But this past week, even that has felt like too much. The energy just hasn’t been there… although I have spent ages thinking about how much I’ve not walked 🤦‍♀️. That nagging feeling of not achieving what I had planned was heavy, but, when I (finally!) managed to go out with Eze today, I decided that some days… weeks… even months won’t be my best. And that’s ok.


I am still so committed to this challenge and to the cause. Supporting families affected by dementia is something that really matters to me, and it is exactly why I will make up for the lost time and keep going.

Every step, no matter how small, is a step forward. Looking forward to a new week, a few more miles, and remembering to give ourselves grace on the tougher days 💙🐾
