I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 30 Miles and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone.

My grandma had vascular dementia and it eventually took her life but slowly with cruelty . She was an incredible woman and even in the late stages was able to play the piano as a well as she always had (almost) as a classically trained pianist. Although there were many good times towards the end, the burden was hard on me as a young man having to care for his grandma and his mother as a young carer and would have appreciated support through those years. Together we can help families share that burden. Saving people of all ages from the trauma that goes with having a loved one slipping away to this horrible disease.

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!
