Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

Help me reach my goal of £250

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 Motivation 💕

Thursday 18th Dec
Dementia has touched the lives of many and is such a heartbreaking disease. It strips away every aspect of a person's independence and leaves them feeling scared and vulnerable even in their own homes. The confusion takes over and the person you know and love slowly slips away. 

Having watched my grandma suffer for years and now my dad, i feel I want to do something to raise awareness and funds for this great charity. 

Please donate whatever you can to help support my efforts 😊.

Thank you in advance x
