Fans vs Dementia

I'm taking on Fans vs Dementia

During the course of 90 minutes, 30 people in the UK will develop dementia.

I’m taking Fans vs Dementia and raising funds so that families affected by dementia get the specialist help and advice they need. I would be grateful for your support.

£19 could pay for the telephone costs of five families calling our free Helpline whenever they need support.

£33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

Thank you!

I’ve never blogged anything in my life!

You know what? I’m lucky enough to have never experienced dementia first-hand, but it scares the life out of me.

When my nan passed, we found a book of photos Kate had put together. She had labelled every picture with who they were—almost as if she were preparing for the day she might not remember. That hit hard. Someone who had lived and loved so much, preparing to forget.

My parents died young, so I haven’t had to experience them going through the same thing. But I know so many people dealing with the challenge of someone they love suffering, and it could affect anyone.

Please give if you’re able. This is such a worthy cause. It’s only a 35-mile walk—but I’m watching Reading afterwards. That’s the real challenge!
