I'm walking 62 Miles in October for Dementia UK

This October, I'm walking 62 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 I’m Walking…

Sunday 20th Sep

Thank you so much for your generosity and support! ❤️

I decided to take on this fundraiser after watching my Grandma Judy’s journey. At 99, she is living with breast cancer and dementia, and she is one of the bravest women I’ve ever known.

All proceeds will go towards supporting families affected by dementia.

Dementia in the UK:

  • 1 in 3 people born today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

  • Around 70,800 people are living with young-onset dementia, with symptoms beginning before 65.

  • Around 70% of care home residents in England have dementia or severe memory problems.

  • Dementia remains the UK’s leading cause of death.

Thank you for helping make a difference to families facing this devastating disease. ❤️
