💜🩷 Eileen’s Walk 🩷💜

This April I’ll be taking on a very personal challenge in memory of my beautiful mam, Eileen 🤍

I will be walking from my mam and dad’s home in Gilesgate all the way to Blackpool – their favourite place to visit together, and a place full of some of my happiest childhood memories.

I’ll be setting off on Monday 13th April, the week of her birthday, and I’m hoping to arrive in Blackpool on Wednesday 15th April, her birthday 🎂✨ In total walking a 116 miles over the three days 🚶🏽

I’m doing this to raise money in my mam’s name for Alzheimer’s Research, a charity I’ve proudly supported in the past. We lost my mam after her long and brave struggle with vascular dementia, and like so many families, ours has been deeply affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia.

These are truly awful diseases – not just for those living with them, but for the families and loved ones who walk the journey alongside them. I want to raise as much as possible to help fund research, support families, and move us closer to a future where no one has to go through this 💔

Thank you to everyone who supports, donates, shares, or even just thinks of us while I take on Eileen’s Walk. I’ll be carrying my mam with me every single step 🩷💜
