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?
Monday 22nd DecWhy 50 Miles? Why January? Why?!
Great questions!
Why 50 Miles? It sounds like a decent challenge, doesn't it? Enough to make my legs feel like jelly some days, but achievable enough that I won't end up phoning a friend for a piggyback halfway through the month. It breaks down to roughly 1.6 miles a day – totally doable (he says optimistically on Day 1!).
Why January? Because… well, why not? While everyone else is hibernating, I figured it was the perfect time to get out, clear my head, and remind myself that fresh air is actually quite invigorating (even if it does occasionally sting my cheeks). Plus, imagine the smug satisfaction of reaching my target while others are still debating if it’s too cold to put the bins out. Pure bliss!
