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!

Raising funds for Dementia UK
Monday 29th Dec I lost my dad to dementia in October 2023. In November 2025 i also lost my mom to dementia. Watching my parents' health deteriorate and them both lose their battle with this terrible illness, has been truly heartbreaking.Thank you to my Sponsors

Good on you Wendy! Such a terrible disease. Heartbreaking watching them fade in and out of lucidity. Watching the anguish on my Dad's face as he try's to remember is awful. Wish there was some magic cure which gives them peace whilst still with us. Wishing you the best of luck and hope you smash your target! Shoutbif you want a hot cuppa waiting for you after one of your walks xxx
