Walk 50 Miles in January 2026

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!

Walk 9, the finale

Thursday 29th Jan
Today went for another and last walk. With another 4.83 miles done, I have now completed the 50 miles. Thank you so much everyone for your donations and support, thank you kindly for my beautiful forget-me-not to Auntie Donna, and thank you for those who has joined me on some of my walks. But most of all to Mum, the most kindest soul and the best Mum in the whole world. You will always be very missed and grateful for all the beautiful times.💕

Walk 8

Another 5miles done. Walked through again Morden Hall Park, my favourite. It was truly beautiful and emotional. Thinking of Mum every second and I miss her so much. This is exactly a walk she would have loved to come along to. I want to believe that she did.💙💙

Part 2

Sunday 4th Jan
Today I walked with my sister, who’s also doing the challenge and in the end family joined in too. Walked from Tooting Bec to Wandsworth Common, little down Northcote Road (bit of a memory lane as I used to work a lot around there) and had some lovely walks there with Mum as well years back.

Part 1 done

Saturday 3rd Jan
Walked home from Kingston upon Thames through Motspur Park. My legs just defrosting but the walk felt amazing both physically and emotionally. 💕 Thank you all for your kindness, I’ll be updating here all my walks.

Thank you

Saturday 3rd Jan
Thank you all who has donated so far, you guys are very kind and generous! Only just set this up last night and we’ve reached half of the goal already.🥰  I’m planning my walks, so very soon I’m going to start on it. Will be updating here when I’ve done some. Thank you all again!💕

For Mum

Friday 2nd Jan
As my closest people know, I have very recently lost my Mum to Lewy body dementia. A cruel illness no one should experience. She always loved to walk and I’m doing this for her and for a cause that became very important in our lives.  To the best Mum in the world, love you forever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
