Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

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!

I have been quiet over thr past week, I have now made it to 39 miles. Only 11 more to go! Been having support from the family, keeping me company and encouraging me to do the walks, even when its been cold and horrible. Thanks to everyone who have donated so far! Over £500!! So amazing 👏

4 miles

Friday 9th Jan
On Wednesday my watch died, so was unable to update with my second walk. My total for the day was 8.5 miles. I am not including my day-to-day steps. With that, I have taken off 2 miles for day-to-day and the 2 miles earlier in the day, which means I walked an additional 4 miles.
19 in total walked so far.

Am I bonkers?

Monday 22nd Dec
I have worked with the older generation for most of my working life,  whether at bingo or for the past 16 years at Townsend Court, and I have seen dementia creep up on so many wonderful people. 
I always say to myself that I want to get healthy and need to challenge myself, but like some of us, I never do. So I am going to challenge myself and do it for a great cause. 
Please support me through this 😊
