Do you want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money in aid of Dementia UK and every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
More information about Dementia UK: Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nurse charity. Our nurses, called Admiral Nurses, provide life-changing care for families affected by all forms of dementia. By supporting our charity, you can help us grow the number of specialist dementia nurses, giving more families a lifeline. With your help, no one will have to face dementia alone.

******************************************

in 2019 we received some earth shattering news, that my darling daddy had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.
This devastating news could not prepare us for the next six years of ups/downs and everything between that we have been experiencing.

To see my father, my hero and a living legend, go through this horrible life changing diagnosis has shook our family to the core. Every day is a battle for both him and us.
Dementia affects the whole family and makes people grieve the life that once was and will never be again. It is cruel and unfair.
Due to living in Norfolk, it is difficult for myself and my sister living down south to visit as much as we would like to, meaning that my mum is alone in caring for dad and his ever changing needs, daily!
Mum is no longer alone, she has Amy, the admiral nurse assigned to my parents by Dementia UK.
Having this support has been so wonderful and has helped take some of those negative thoughts and worries away.

In order to raise money for Dementia uk & in honour of my dad, Roy; I will be completing the Three peaks challenge!
This challenge is not for the faint hearted and requires me to climb three mountains, Ben Nevis (Scotland), Scafell Pike (England) and Snowdonia (Wales).
These climbs will begin on Friday 12th September 2025
and will finish on Sunday 14th September, 2025.

Anyone who knows dad will know he is a fun, happy, cool and caring individual, but Dementia has started taking away parts of him.

I would be so grateful if you are able to sponsor me so that we can raise funds for Dementia UK so that they continue to be able to offer families the help and compassion during the most difficult days of their lives!

Thank you for taking the time to read our story x
