I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK
This September, I'm walking 30 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. I have lost my beloved mum to this cruel illness.
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!

Week 4 ... journey continues...
Monday 28th Sep Dear All,
Journey so far ... week 1
Sunday 6th Sep Thank you so much to everyone who supported me so far and thus supported families who are affected by dementia. It is emotional journey to me as my mum was like a best friend. It was heartbreaking to see her deteriorate so quickly. I have walked so far 16.9 miles this week in her memory. I had 3 walks so far Ferry Meadows 4.5 miles, River Orwell 4.5 miles and this afternoon Wimpole Estate 7.9 miles. I think there would be more emotional days ahead but if there is any way I can support and make the little difference to others who are in the same situation and also come to terms with what has happened...this journey, every step is worth it. I will send next update next weekend. I have added some photos of River Orwell and Wimpole walks. Thank you so much. Share
