I'm walking 62 Miles in October for Dementia UK

This October, I'm walking 62 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!

This October, I’m taking on the challenge of walking 62 miles to raise awareness and support for dementia. 🚶‍♀️💜

Working in a care home, I see first-hand how heartbreaking dementia can be and how much it can affect not only the person living with it, but their families, friends and loved ones too.

It can take away memories, change personalities and make everyday life difficult. Seeing the sadness and confusion it can cause is something that really stays with you. 💔

I’m doing these 62 miles to show my support for everyone affected by dementia and to help raise awareness for such an important cause.

Every mile will be walked with the people I’ve met, cared for and thought about along the way. 💜
