We did it!

Nine members of staff and three family members completed the challenging 19-mile trek across the Pennines to Tan Hill, Britain’s highest pub at 1,732 feet, and have raised £1,310 to support Dementia Forward.  We were blessed with fine weather, although strong headwinds made the outward leg more challenging as we walked uphill into the wind.  We enjoyed a well-earned drink at Tan Hill, before heading back to Bowes. The camaraderie was great throughout the day, keeping each other motivated and in high spirits despite a few of us suffering with blisters – as a badge on Jordan’s backpack said: “No pain, no gain!”

We are keeping our donation page open for another couple of days so if you would like to support the team before the page closes on Wednesday morning and help to make a difference to those living with dementia then any donations would be gratefully received.
