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!

Did it!
Saturday 31st Jan Well, there were times I thought I’d struggle but… I had just two miles left and today was such a lovely, sunny day it made it almost easy! Many many thanks to everyone who has supported me on this little adventure. As I’ve said somewhere else, fifty miles in a month might not seem a lot, but the month is January and my condition makes getting out of bed and walking downstairs difficult at times. So I’ve earned my glass of bubbly today to celebrate! Share
Day 13
Tuesday 13th Jan 2.9 miles thanks largely to an evening stroll to The Mill to celebrate Charlie’s 18th birthday. Back on track? Almost. Share
Day 12
Monday 12th Jan That’s more like it! 2.8 miles thanks largely to a meeting of the fundraising committee for the Stump music appeal… walked to, of course. (Almost) back on track. Share
Day 9-11
Sunday 11th Jan Well, it went from bad to worse! Even less (0.59 miles) on Friday, thanks to some bl**dy awful weather. Let’s hope for better tomorrow.
Day 8
Thursday 8th Jan Oh dear! Another sub-mile day (though only just - 0.95 is so, so close!) - I’d better get my skates on tomorrah! Share
Day 7
Wednesday 7th Jan Poor effort today! Not even half a mile: 0.43 to be precise. Still, every little helps I suppose. Here’s hoping tomorrow yields something better. Share
Day 6
Wednesday 7th Jan Well, a difficult day to get those yards done, with snow and ice and a bitter wind. A grand total of 0.73 miles is all o could muster. Thanks to the better days I’m still (wait for it!)… on track. Share
Day 5
Monday 5th Jan Two miles: a lovely, late afternoon stroll through the Country Park in the snow. Share
Day 4
Sunday 4th Jan Dipped below the magic mile mark today (but only by 0.03) so… still on track! Share
