Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page 💜

I know first hand what a wicked & cruel disease Dementia is for families. I want to raise money for others like us who are in need of support in this living nightmare. 

Unfortunately my dad got diagnosed with Dementia alongside Parkinson’s in his early 60’s after retiring from a life of teaching, and it has torn through our family for the last 3 years. After some years of caring for dad at home, his needs became too great and he is now in the most incredible nursing home to get the specialist care he deserves.

I’m walking the 45k South Coast Challenge on the 4th of Sept for Dementia UK. This charity offers care and support for families living with this awful illness in a very lost and lonely time.  Please if you could help me raise some money for other families it would mean the world to me. 💙
