March Dog Walking Challenge

I'm walking 62K with my dog for Dementia UK

This March, I'm walking 62K with my dog 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!

Final weekend

Saturday 29th Mar
We’re up to 103Km now, and we’ve raised nearly £700 in sponsorship, which is incredible, thanks once again to our sponsors.
We are going to try and complete 112Km by the 31st March, which will neatly round off the challenge at 70 miles. Fingers crossed!

Having a breather

Final week

Monday 24th Mar
One week to go, and we’ve completed 88 Km of our target of 100 Km.
We’ve also raised over £600  for Dementia UK in the process, which is fantastic, thank you to each and every one  of our sponsors.
Here’s to getting it over the line!

Targets increased

Sunday 16th Mar
As we have completed 55Km thus far with relative ease, I have increased my distance goal to 100 Km. 
We have also achieved total sponsorship so far of over £500, which is incredible - thanks to all our sponsors.
Let's hope the weather plays ball for the remainder of the month!

First week complete

Saturday 8th Mar
Benny and I have managed a total of 32 Km thus far, just over 50% of the target. Our sponsorship currently stands at £393 thanks to our amazing sponsors.
Here's to more Km's for next week!

Doubled the fundraising target!

Monday 3rd Mar
Just 3 days into the challenge, and my fundraising has reached over double the target!
Thank you to all my sponsors for your support. 
Distance wise, Benny and I have completed 15Km, or 24% of the total.

First challenge walk completed

Sunday 2nd Mar
Yesterday Benny and I walked a total of 10.5 Km  in the stunning scenery of the Lincolnshire Wolds. The weather was perfect, and it was a good start to our monthly challenge.

Target reached and exceeded!

Wednesday 26th Feb
The minimum fundraising target of £160 has been reached and exceeded thanks to my generous sponsors, thank you all.
I have now  increased my target to £250, so if you wish to sponsor me for this very worthwhile cause, please feel free to do so. Thanks again.
