I'm running 100K for Dementia UK for my Mum and others affected
This February, I'm running 100K 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. Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £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!

For my Mum and others affected
Monday 27th Jan So a couple of years ago my mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s which was a huge shock to us all. Over this time we have seen my Mum deteriorate quite considerably. My dad is the hero here as he looks after her day in day out. Myself and my sister help as much as we can as both live away which is hard. My mum is a living legend and still harbours that cheeky personality and love she always gave. This is an awful disease so that’s why I am doing something to help. I hate running. I can’t walk 1km without being out of breath. So I’ve decided to push myself in February for my Mum and others that are affected. So if you can help please donate - even £1 will help this charity. I will update on my progress as I begin the 1st February to complete the 100k. Thank you for reading. ShareThank you to my Sponsors
