For a number of years I could see the problem with Alzheimer’s getting worse around me  so I decided that one day I would  do a big challenge to bring attention & help by supporting the sufferers. Also to help with research for prevention/cure.  Everyday I hear and see more and more people getting dementia/Alzheimers.

In recent years several people whom I have known well have developed this condition. Recently I heard in the news that the numbers are going to double. This is very frightening.

So in early 2019 I set aside a time in the spring of  2020 to go on a long solo walk around coastal towns, villages and cities to raise funds and bring awareness of this awful condition.

I plan to start from South  Wales walking to the north, From here I will go to Scotland and then go across to the east coast of Scotland.  Then working my way down the east coast towards Kent. From here I will go to Cornwall and walk up to South Wales, to my starting point.
