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!

Saturday 31st Jan
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 That was a challenge to be fair! Dragging myself out in the dark, wet, grey, cold and wind was hard at times. But I remembered what I was doing it for, and always thankful I can choose to do this and I can physically walk 2 miles a day 💜
