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!

Thank you so much if you have already donated. I've done 11 Miles so far and still have today's walking to do!


As I walk today I'll think about my Nan and all those Psalms she liked me to read for her. She suffered dementia in her final years but never forgot those Psalms. God rest your soul Nan 🌸🫶🏽🙌🏽

Day One Done and Dusted

Tuesday 1st Sep
Thank you to everyone who has donated to my fundraiser so far. Your support is acknowledged and very much appreciated. I wasn’t sure how I was going to manage my walk for today since it’s also my first day back at work after the very relaxing  summer holidays 🤦🏽‍♀️🙃! But I managed. 3.28 miles on the treadmill in 48 minutes.  Please feel free to share my page with family and friends. If you haven’t already and you’re feeling kind hearted and generous, drop a little donation. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
