I'm running for Dementia UK

As you may know my mum has dementia - it is the most evil, cruel, brutal illness. Losing someone a little more daily, literally everyday. 
Mum was diagnosed shortly after dad passed away - dementia UK have already been a fantastic help for advice. But I am sure over time we will need their help more and more. 

 I'm taking on a 30 day running challenge 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!
