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. 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!

Day five & six: Weekend vibes

Sunday 6th Sep
Fully embracing the weekends, this involved small walks during the day to add to the miles and a trip to the local fair with Grandma/Great Grandma. The lady we are doing this for and what fun we had! 


Day Three: little legs and friends

Thursday 3rd Sep
Today’s walk took us longer than expected due to seeing friends and Frank the dog who we love to pieces!!

How many people does it take to walk a dog!

Wednesday 2nd Sep
Day Two of the challenge: 
I will admit I forgot to upload day one! Which was a complete fail on my part! Ive decided that for every missed update I will donate myself keeping a pot at home until the final day! 

So day two - the weather really has changed and work is back in full swing! We opted for a group walk today which included a 3 year old, 3 grown adults and a boxer dog and for extra measure rain! It’s all fun and games until dog realises it’s raining and wants to get home and a 3 year old wanting the pushchair and to hold the lead at the same time! 

Grandma would have laughed at us and for sure would have made some comments 😂 can’t wait to show her the pictures and videos when we see her at the weekend.
