Gemma and I are cycling 90 miles for Dementia UK

Gemma and I are taking on a cycling challenge and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. We have only once managed 40 miles, so cycling 90 miles over two days on mountain bikes is quite the challenge for us.

We are doing this because we have friends with parents who are suffering with Dimentia and to see the impact it has on families is utterly heartbreaking. We hope our fundraising can make a subtle difference. 

We are 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!

Day 2 complete!!!

Sunday 16th Aug
We did it!!! We cycled a total of 93.2 miles in two days. More than our initial target of 90 miles. So proud of my daughter for completing this and so grateful to the donations.  It was well worth the pain and effort. 

Day 1 complete

Saturday 15th Aug
We have done it! 45 miles and in Prestatyn. Resting up so that we can do the return journey tomorrow. Another 45 miles.
What amazing views along the way!! Heading over to Penmaenmawr and Penrhyn Bay were some of the most challenging bits. Thank you to all of those who have contributed towards this cause so far.
