Jog 1 Mile a Day in April

Jog 1 Mile a Day in April

I'm jogging one mile a day for Dementia UK

Welcome to my fundraising page! This April, I'm taking on the challenge of jogging a mile every single day to raise vital funds for Dementia UK.

This cause is incredibly close to my heart. I have loved ones who are living with dementia, and I know the impact it has. 💔

 The support provided by Dementia UK is crucial - they offer invaluable guidance and resources, making a real difference to those affected by this challenging condition.


😬 Jogging a mile daily is definitely pushing me outside my comfort zone! 

Not only am I trying to fit it into my busy schedule, but I'm also recovering from an asthma flare-up and working on rebuilding my fitness. 

This month-long challenge will be a great way to get back into shape, while raising money for a worthy cause. 🙌🏻


👉🏻 Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a real difference. Thank you so much for your support and for helping me reach my fundraising goal!

Thank you for visiting my page and for your generosity.

*************

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!

Mile one ... ✅

Tuesday 1st Apr
Day one enthusiasm  - and having Nate running circles around me chattering non-stop - worked wonders today!

I ran the whole distance, despite surprisingly warm weather. But I did decline Nate's suggestion of a double-fast sprint up the final hill! 😅

So that's 1 mile down, 29 to go ... 

Tomorrow's the day!

Monday 31st Mar
Tomorrow's the BIG day! 

I'm kicking off my 'Run a Mile a Day' challenge for Dementia UK, and honestly, I'm a mix of excited and, well, a little nervous! 

Huge thanks to everyone who's already chucked some money my way – you guys are amazing! And if you're thinking about sponsoring me? Seriously, every single penny counts, like, really counts. 

Living with dementia is heartbreaking and supporting this charity means that we are making a real difference to the lives of people who struggle with this every day.

So, if you see me pounding the pavements around Poynton, look out for my bright Dementia UK bandana. Give me a wave, a cheer, anything! 

And, you know, if you fancy sponsoring me, that'd be just brilliant!
