About

This year I am raising money for Dementia UK. Having witnessed the impact this condition had on my Grandparents and those around them, I chose the first challenge (C2C), as the route, in winding its way through Cumbria over the Penines and via Newcastle, passes through villages, towns and countryside where they grew up, met, married, lived and worked.
