Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page to celebrate my Mum, Sally Mead, who lost her battle with Vascular Dementia on 3 April 2023.

I'm walking 1k (and hopefully a bit more) a day throughout February 2024 in memory of Mum, to remember a wonderful lady and raise awareness of this brutal disease in all its forms.

It should do me a bit of good too!

Thank you for your interest and support - anything you can spare will be hugely appreciated.

I'm conscious that for me anyway, 1k a day is not a huge challenge so I'm aiming to walk at least 5k a day, so lets say 150km overall in February.

I’ll track my progress on Strava (when I remember to switch it on/off!)

Thank so much for your interest and support.
