Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

I'm walking 50 Miles in January for Dementia UK

This January, I'm walking 50 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 January Challenge for Dementia UK

Sunday 4th Jan

This January marks two years since my gran passed away. Helping care for her for six years meant she was such a big part of my everyday life that losing her left a space I’m still figuring out how to live around. I miss her all the time.


This year, I wanted to do something to mark her anniversary, so I’ll be walking 50 miles (minimum!) throughout January to raise money for Dementia UK. It feels like a great way to honour her, to acknowledge the journey we went through together, and to support a charity that helps families like ours through some of their toughest moments.


If you’d like to support by donating, sharing this, or just cheering me on, it would mean a lot. Every bit of awareness and every pound raised helps Dementia UK continue their vital work for people living with dementia and the loved ones who care for them.
