Dementia affected my family. We lost both our parents to dementia before they left this earth. It was very hard in the last few years seeing the disappearance of the people I knew so well, to the point they didnt even know who i was anymore. So..

This June, I'm swimming 10 kilometres 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!
