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!

Wednesday 7th Jan Walked into town yesterday- probably only the 2nd time I have done that since we moved here and the first time I also walked home!! Had a lovely walk on Brighton beachfront this morning - mam really liked brighton so thought about her a lot and even had a little chat! So 5 miles completed yesterday and today. 😊 Share

In memory of Mam
Wednesday 31st Dec I am walking 50 miles during January in memory of my Mam, Bernie Ferreira (the lovely lady in my profile photo). She was a loving, caring, warm and fiercely independent woman who was cherished by her family. She battled physical illness during her life with determination and resilience but could not win the fight against Alzheimers. The world is not quite right without her, we miss her so much. So, I am starting 2026 walking in memory of Mam and to raise money for the fight against Dementia. ShareThank you to my Sponsors
