Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

Help me reach my goal of £250

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!

Challenging myself for the New Year

Wednesday 17th Dec

 This January, I’m taking on a personal challenge: to walk 50 miles over the course of the month to raise money for Dementia UK.

While the distance itself is important, this challenge means so much more to me than counting miles. It’s something I’m doing with purpose  and with someone very special in mind.

Why Dementia UK?
My great granny had dementia, and I was very close to her. Watching someone you love change because of this illness is incredibly hard. Dementia doesn’t just take memories; it affects relationships, routines, and the small moments that make someone who they are.

Even now, thinking about her reminds me why support for people living with dementia  and for their families , is so vital. Dementia UK does amazing work through their Admiral Nurses, providing specialist care, reassurance, and guidance to families navigating an incredibly difficult journey.
