I'm jogging one mile a day for Dementia UK

This April, I'm jogging one mile each day 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. Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £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 16 - challenge by Shannon from Dementia Uk to run a Heart-Shaped map

Wednesday 16th Apr
Vaguely a heart shaped run at Blickling today.  Our mother Janice died in February after a long health battle brought on by a stroke last year. She loved being in nature and visiting gardens such as those at Blickling and
she would often say: "isn't that just gorgeous!" to the beauty of the world.
So this and all the other runs are in celebration of her life and memory.
