Every three minutes in the UK, someone develops dementia and the diagnosis can be devastating for the whole family. Many struggle to know where to turn, and are left feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and alone.

By the end of a two-hour stream, 40 people will have developed dementia and thats why we need your help.

We want every family affected by dementia to have the life-changing support of a specialist dementia nurse, but right now, we cant reach everyone who needs us. When you #StreamforDementiaUK, youll help raise vital funds so our nurses can offer a lifeline to more families when they need it most.

As part of Dementia uks events for fans to walk to there teams next home match me and a group of friends are walking from Washington to Sunderland for the sunderland v Southampton game to raise money for Dementia UK.
