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!

In memory of my wonderful dad.

Thursday 1st Oct
As many of you know dad passed away in April following a courageous and dignified battle against this cruel disease. I miss him every second of every day. I’ll be walking 62 miles in October in his memory, listening to his favourite songs whilst doing so; it somehow makes me feel closer to him and that he’s nearby. Any donations would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
