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!

Why I am doing this:

Wednesday 31st Dec
My grandad Jim suffered from dementia and I work on a dementia ward in the local hospital. I have personally seen how dementia doesn't just effect the person with it but everybody around them. I am rasing this money in the hope that some families may get better support and that more money goes into research of dementia.

Thank you to my Sponsors
