I'm cycling 300 miles for Dementia UK

This June, I'm cycling 300 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. 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!

The end is in sight

Saturday 28th Jun
A short but tough ride with tired legs and the persistent wind. 
£400 worth of donations (plus gift aid) and 780 miles cycled. I think I’m done. 

Nearly there

Friday 27th Jun
One more bike ride will complete my challenge and I’ve raised my sponsorship target for the last few days🤞

Challenge nearly done.

Thursday 26th Jun
Another day of cycling in the wind. Today we fought it heading out and expected a tailwind home, but the weather gods weren’t going to go easy on us. 
However, I have another 66 miles under my belt and less than 20 to complete my personal target. 
Thanks to my cycling friends for their company today. 

Longest ride of the challenge -81 miles

Sunday 22nd Jun
We’ve been wanting to cycle from home, Darlington, to Coverdale near Middleham, so we waited and waited for an opportunity when we wouldn’t get battered by the wind which never seems to stop. I was with my fellow challenger, Pauline, and two happy chappies  who wanted a jolly day out too. We stopped  for several photos ( because we can) and a puncture held us up, but the sun shone, we had lots of laughs and two cafe stops. We were tired and sweaty by the end, but it was a proper grand day out in Yorkshire.
