During May 2026, we're inviting you to take a simple step that makes a huge difference: Walk a Mile a day in May for Memory Matters.

Dementia affects many lives in our community, and the need for support is ever-growing. Your steps, no matter how big or small, can help us provide vital services, support families, and empower individuals living with dementia to thrive.

The Challenge: Walk a Mile a day in May

It's simple: commit to walking a mile a day during the month of May.

Walk in your local park, along the coast, around your garden, or even on a treadmill. Every single step counts!

This isn't just about moving your feet; it's about moving forward together, raising essential funds and awareness for Memory Matters.

Why Your Steps Matter

Every pound you raise will directly support one of our essential services, like our Memory Cafés, Young Onset Peer Support Groups, and Dementia Advisor service. Your participation means:

More connections for people feeling isolated.
Specialist support for younger individuals facing a diagnosis.
One-to-one guidance for families navigating challenging times.

By walking a mile a day in May, you're helping us create a community where no one faces dementia alone.
