I'm running 100K for Dementia UK
This February, I'm running 100K 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!

Turning a negative into a positive!
Monday 26th JanNew Years Day 2026 my Dad, my hero passed away, he had Dementia.
I have witnessed first hand the cruelty of this disease. My Dad was the kindest, most gentle human in my life however Dementia took this from him. On occasions he was still that person but also on occasions he was not, quite the opposite. Dementia did that.
Dementia really is the long goodbye, you lose that love one time and time again. We were quite fortunate, he stiil knew who we were when he passed.
By doing this challenge, I hope I can support vital research into this awful disease and what it does to our loved ones, to finding a cure for my children’s or grandchildren’s generation and help me do something positive in a current dark time of my life.
Thank you, I really do appreciate any support or donations 😘

Hi Kirsty, To lose both fathers in such a short time must be devastating. Your father didn't deserve this awful disease. It is tragic. Well done in taking up this challenge with John and doing something positive. We will be cheering you both on! Love Arvi & Nick. Xx
