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!

Night Hike and Wild Camping

Saturday 18th Oct

Well I hadn’t had chance to update Bailey on the total raised before he took over … but to clock up some more miles he and his mate Dylan decided to start their weekend with a Night Hike … Helvellyn via Striding Edge … with some fabulous views … they are planning on taking on Scarfell Pike today. Can we raise more???

We are amazed and thankful for all your generous donations to support a charity that supports so many families like ours. It’s a minefield to navigate this illness watching a loved one struggle but your support so far will help so many . We’re so grateful for such fantastic friends who have such giving hearts

Love from us all xxxx

Night Hike and Wild Camp

What wonderful people you are 💕

Wednesday 15th Oct

Words cannot express how grateful I am for the generous donations .. I’ve increased my goal a number of times now.. what began as just hoping to raise £250 .. has just surpassed what I could imagine.

To know not only your behind me in this challenge but to have messages of emotional support for us as a family while we navigate the current situations is truly amazing.

Love you all of you xxxx

Increased Target Donations and its smashed already ❤️

Sunday 12th Oct

I cannot tell you how absolutely amazing you all are! I just wanted to do something, physical to make a difference for other families, during a time where so much is outside of my control!

I never imagined it would allow me to increase my fundraising target, but I shouldn’t have been surprised. I am surrounded by so many amazingly, generous, supportive friends and family. Words cannot express my gratitude but please please please know how extremely grateful for you all I am.

Wow Target Hit … can we raise more? 😉

Saturday 11th Oct

I cannot thank you all enough… this is a journey, not in miles but in being able to navigate the changing landscape that dementia brings … we’re working hard behind the scenes to support Dad . There are more families like ours, people who are desperately trying to navigate the changes and challenges this illness brings, Whilst still working, providing care and planning for the future. Dementia UK offer such support which can help ease some of those challenges.

THANKYOU ALL, for your past, present and future support.

Time for some miles in the Lakes

Saturday 11th Oct

Hey All… Here goes 2 days here in the lakes to clock up some more miles … with some company.. get to do it with my fabulously supportive husband, and Mr Maitland. .. I explained to dad what I was doing this weekend .. I got a reassuring smile and a hug… however he didn’t remember walking some of Derwentwater with my those years ago! But to get a hug and some love off him is plenty … THANKYOU ALL FOR YOUR DONATIONS so far… not far from target .. perhaps may raise more than planned .. more photos to come LOVE YOU ALL xx

A bit behind

Sunday 5th Oct

Hey all,

Well I’m a little behind plan due to being a little off colour with that nasty virus… but getting back out there … please stick with me .. I’ll hit target by the 17th October.. trust me ..

if you’ve not donated yet, please consider supporting this charity … if you have, you know how much I appreciate it .. these miles are doing more than raising money. Much love ❤️

Blown away already…

Friday 26th Sep

Hey All,

Wow half my target raised and not set foot out yet today … I can’t thank you enough for checking out the page and support. Even if you cannot donate I appreciate your support and encouragement. Many will know what living with family with dementia means, even those who work with those people with dementia can relate. The amazing support that dementia uk provides is just so needed to help us navigate what is a scary, confusing, challenging period all whilst trying to be carers, wives, husbands, daughters, sons, and grandchildren. It’s a rocky road, and without the support of admiral nurses and wider support networks it can prove impossible. Please take time to donate or share with others how important charities like these are.

Update again soon

Love to all

Lou xx
