I'm walking 31 Miles in May for Dementia UK

This May, I'm walking 31 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!

Day 4

Monday 4th May
Day 4 is grans 85th birthday! I'm actually really enjoying taking a short walk everyday after months of going between home and work. Today was just a short mile round the town compared to the 2 mile walk around the local park. I still can't quite believe my gran is 85 and still going strong. I won't get to see her today but I'll be thinking of her all day and thinking about what mischief she will be getting into on her birthday 💜💜

Day 2

Saturday 2nd May
Another successful mile done. Today me and my friend completed our miles together. She is also fundraising for a different charity. We went around Wilton Park today 🙃

Day one

Friday 1st May
Today marks day 1 of my mile a day in may in honour of my gran who is currently suffering with dementia. I'm working all day but I've already nearly hit my 1 mile target just from walking to work. This cause means so much to me. To see the changes in my gran from when I was a little girl to now is absolutely heartbreaking but the people taking care of her are absolute superheros and I'm doing it not just for gran but for all those nurses too.

Thank you to my Sponsors
