I'm running 100K for Dementia UK

This February, I'm running 100K and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. As I’m still recovering from reconstructive knee surgery last April, running 100k in 28 days will certainly be a challenge. Yet an even greater challenge is faced daily by so many of my patients living with dementia. I hope this fundraising effort can serve as a small beacon of support for the families and carers of loved ones with dementia.

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!
