We are jogging one mile a day for Dementia UK
This April, we are jogging one mile each day and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone.
We will be taking part in the challenge as 2 teams - Isaac and his friend Evan running together and then Oscar and myself running together :)
Isaac & Evan will be tackling the challenge by running a couple of times a week. Their goal is to rack up a few miles each run, with hopes of then hitting around 7 miles per week.
Oscar and I will be keeping things simple and are aiming to complete 1 mile a day together.
We are 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. Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £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!

Kicking Off the 1 Mile a Day Challenge!
Wednesday 2nd Apr
The month of April is finally here, and so begins our 1 Mile a Day for Dementia Challenge. We're excited and ready to take on this challenge for a cause that's close to our hearts.
We’ve had some new additions to our little running team!!!
Isaac has now teamed up with one of his best friends, Evan, and together, they'll be tackling the challenge by running a couple of times a week. Their goal is to rack up a few miles each run, with hopes of hitting around 7 miles per week.
I’ve also gained a new running partner—Oscar! We’re aiming to complete 1 mile a day together, and yesterday, we kicked things off with our first mile. We enjoyed a beautiful evening jog as the sun was setting, and it was the perfect way to start our journey. The weather was lovely and we were all smiles.
Isaac and Evan have already hit the ground running (literally!), with a pre-April run of about 2 miles, followed by another 2-mile run yesterday after school. They’re off to a fantastic start!!
To help us stay on track and keep the momentum going, both our teams have set up Strava accounts to log our runs. This way, we can easily monitor our progress and keep each other motivated. We’ll be updating our Strava profiles regularly to show our progress and help track how far we've come.
We’re all feeling excited about the challenge and ready to make a real difference. This challenge isn’t just about running—it’s about raising awareness and funds for dementia research, and we’re passionate about supporting this incredibly important cause.
Thanks for following along with us on this journey! We’ll keep you updated with our progress, and if you feel inspired to join us or donate, every little bit helps.
Here's to the next 30 days of running for dementia!
