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!

Why am I doing this?

Tuesday 1st Sep
This month I’m doing the Walk 30 Miles for Dementia with the Alzheimer’s Society. Most of the miles will be walked over my birthday weekend, (11th, 12th, 13th) along the beautiful Jurassic Coast and surrounding Dorset countryside.
This is something that means a lot to me, having seen my Grandad go through dementia and watched my beautiful Nanny support him for many years. (It’s her birthday as of the 1st ❤️ Happy birthday Nanny!)
I also worked in an incredible dementia specialist care home for a couple of years, where I saw first-hand just how devastating and difficult dementia can be — not only for the people living with it, but for their families and the incredible carers who go out of their way every single day to support them.
I want to do this walk to honour their strength and the people affected by dementia, having seen first-hand just how challenging it can be from so many different sides. 💪
If you’d like to support me, you can cheer me on, share this post, or donate if you’re able to. I really appreciate any support I can get. ❤️
