Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In December 2021, my wonderful Dad Peter Miles was diagnosed with vascular dementia and dementia with lewy bodies. Both are progressive conditions that affect movement, walking, memory, speech, swallowing, sleep and every day activities. 

My dad is a true fighter and we are supporting him every day as best we can. Yesterday, I took him to a dementia friendly choir. He adored it. He got out, he met other people suffering with dementia and he laughed and he reminsced. Today he probably will not remember going but we did and it was wonderful. 

Dementia UK has been so supportive as a charity, providing advice and emotional support from their wonderful admiral nurses and a host of information and practical advice. 

By 2025, more than 1 million people in the UK will have a dementia diagnosis. Dementia UK provides life-changing support to us all. Please give what ever you can to help me raise funds. It is the most important fundraising event I have ever taken part in.

Dad, me, Robin and all our family and friends thank you SO much ❤️
