I'm walking 30 miles in September for Dementia UK

This September, I'm walking 30 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!

I've just passed the midway point!

Thursday 17th Sep
Just over halfway there and 18.3 miles down! 
I've also raised just over half of my fundraising target - not including a few offline promises :) - and it would be great to raise a bit more for this awesome charity. So if you are able to donate just a few pennies, it would be  hugely appreciated.
Many thanks, V xx
