June 6th marks 1year since Tommy launched dementia campaign
Dementia awareness thinking about walking Glasgow to London next year to collect more life stories
Last year I launched my campaign with a walk round Scottish cities to raise awareness and collect life stories. I have been overwhelmed by the amazing response to this campaign ,I am thinking about walking from Glasgow to London next June to raise awareness and collect more life stories or even a relay of carers walking through towns and cities much like the Olympic torch handing over letters and life stories to the next town /city.
This would be great to get volunteers and carer /dementia organizations who do great work all involved ,working together, working as one to raise awareness and help tell the story of living with and caring for a loved one. Its just an idea at this point ,but then so was my walk round Scotland a year and a half ago.
