November Knitting Challenge 2026

I'm knitting everyday in November for Dementia UK

This November, I'm taking on the Dementia UK November Knitting Challenge by knitting every day and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone.

Dementia affects millions of people, changing lives in ways that can be overwhelming and heartbreaking. That's why I'm supporting Dementia UK, the specialist dementia nursing charity. Their Admiral Nurses provide expert advice, practical support and compassionate guidance to families when they need it most.

Just £33 could fund a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour supporting a family, helping them understand their options, cope with difficult situations and feel less alone.

Thank you for helping me make a difference this November. Your support means so much. 💙

Hello!

Tuesday 27th Oct

I have a desperate need to clear my long-neglected yarn stash and an even stronger desire to make a difference for people living with dementia so for that reason, I’m taking part in November Knitting Challenge 2026 to raise money for Dementia UK – a cause close to my heart. 

By supporting my challenge, you can offer a lifeline to more families living with dementia. A donation of just £10 could cover the telephone costs of two people calling Dementia UK’s Helpline for expert, compassionate support from a specialist dementia nurse.  

I will be knitting every day in November and sharing updates here.

Thank you so much for your support. 

Best wishes,
Susie 😊
