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 recently lost my nan to dementia, and earlier in the year lost my mum. So I'm going to listen to their favourite soundtracks and do this for them. My nan loved to go on walks on her holidays, her rambles, see new places so this is my way to honour her and help the charity. 

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!
