I'm walking 150 Miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 150 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!

30 miles?! More like 100+

Monday 31st Aug
Hi all. So it seems Dementia UK won't let me set my own/ update my target. So I'm doing it here... walking 30 miles doesn't seem like much of a challenge, so I'm upping the total to 150 miles. That's 5 miles a day, every day in September. Not quite sure yet how I'll find the time, but with about 20% of the people I've led funerals for over the last 2+ years having lived with dementia, witnessing the impact ot has on families and loved ones, and none of us knowing exactly what's coming our way in life, I think we could all do with supporting a bit more research into such a brutal disease. If you've got anything spare you can donate, then I'd be really grateful if you could sponsor my blisters, my time and my sanity with a small donation to Dementia UK. Thank you 😊
