I'm walking 62 Miles in October

I’m walking 62 Miles in October and raising funds so that families affected by dementia get the specialist help and advice they need. I would be grateful for your support.

An £10 donation can cover the telephone costs of two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

Thank you!

Day 15 - Phil’s birthday

Wednesday 15th Oct
7 miles done today with Phil for his birthday, from Okehampton to Belstone. Starting at Fatherford viaduct again, up the East Okement river onto the moor and the Nine Maiden’s stone circle before dropping down to Belstone. Pub lunch in The Tors Inn. Really lovely and all in a good cause. 

Thanks to those who have already donated, there’s still plenty of time though. 

33 miles done, 29 to go. 

Day 8

Wednesday 8th Oct
After a great start last week, it’s been hard to find time to get the miles in. Lots of work and Mum’s birthday at the weekend. Found time for 6 miles today though, including a walk along the East Okement River, from Fatherford viaduct, into Okehampton and back through Ball Hill woods.  

Day one

Wednesday 1st Oct
10 miles done on day 1! Pleased with that. A couple of dog walks and a lovely longer walk this morning out of Black Torrington to Hole Station, along the old railway line to Highampton, down to Sheepwash and back to BT. Beautiful, warm , sunny morning. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
