Walk 30 Miles in September 2026

Join the Facebook group for Walk 30 miles in September challenge.

I'm walking 30 Miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 30 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!

My personal story

Thursday 30th Jul
Having lost both my Step Dad  Kenny Boy , and recently , my Step Mum Irene to dementia I have seen first hand how this illness affects the individual , the family living with them  and the family left behind .  This is to remember them and to support my family and friends who are on this journey , or who may end up in this journey. 
It is heartbreaking to watch a loved one suffer and if my efforts can help just a little to help someone and their family every step will be worth it 
Please donate if you can - even just a couple of pounds will help - thank you ☺️
