I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK

This May, I'm walking 31 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!

My Reason ❤️

Sunday 12th Apr
Dementia isn’t just an illness—it’s something that affects real people, real families, and real lives every single day. Whether it’s seeing someone you love slowly change, or watching a family struggle to cope, the impact runs deep. That’s why I feel motivated to do something, no matter how small it may seem.

Taking part in this walk is my way of contributing to the fight against dementia. By being sponsored, I can help raise money that goes towards vital research, better care, and support for those living with the condition. Every donation helps bring us one step closer to understanding dementia more and, hopefully, finding ways to treat or even prevent it in the future.

It’s also about raising awareness. The more we talk about dementia, the more people understand it—and that understanding can make a huge difference. Being sponsored encourages conversations, and those conversations help break down stigma and build compassion.

On a personal level, this walk is something I want to put my heart and soul into,  It’s a chance to do something positive, to push myself, and to turn that effort into something meaningful. My Nana was diagnosed with dementia last year, this gives me an extra reason to keep going, step by step! 

Ultimately, I’m not just walking for myself. I’m walking for everyone affected by dementia—the individuals living with it, the families supporting them, and the future generations who deserve better answers and better care.

Every bit of sponsorship isn’t just helping me complete a walk—it’s helping make a difference.

Thank you to my Sponsors
