The Trekking Team are raising money for The Dementia Experience
Help us raise vital funds to support & bring nuggets of joy to families and carers of those living with dementia 💜
This October, we’re taking on a 50km High Atlas trek — not just as a physical challenge, but as a powerful symbol of resilience, love, and determination. We walk for the family members who give so much every single day and in honour of those they love who live with dementia. Their strength in the face of such emotional challenges inspires us to keep moving forward. Watching someone you love change is incredibly hard, and the courage it takes to adapt cannot be underestimated. This life-changing adventure will give participants the chance to recharge, reflect, and turn personal experiences into something powerful and meaningful.
All funds raised will support the incredible work of The Dementia Experience — creating free, vibrant spaces where people can laugh, build confidence, feel less alone, and challenge stigma together. By donating, you’re helping families stay connected and supported in colourful, welcoming environments filled with warmth and positivity. Thank you.
Team Members:
Sarah: " in 2022 my beautiful mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Mum was always the life and soul and has had a full and wonderful life. Since her diagnosis her world has become a lot smaller. We tried lots of different groups and activities and it was just not her. That is until we found The Dementia Experience. Becoming part of this fabulous group of people has given us our mum back as during these sessions she shines like she used to. For those who know me are well aware that I love a plush hotel and my creature comforts so in doing this challenge I will be totally out of my comfort zone. Please help me to raise as much money as I can for this wonderful cause."
Clara: "I do this for my darling gregarious & go getter mum. As words run out, we have found connection thanks to nuggets of joy released when we danse, sing or giggle together. Her bravery & twinkle during dementia have taught me so much about living life in the moment. I'll be thinking of her, all those living with dementia, and their warrior family members."
