The Skipton Three Peaks sponsored walk in aid of Dementia Forward will take place this September.
The walk, being held on Sunday 22nd September, includes Sharp Haw, Embsay Crag and Skipton Moor, and is an 18-mile scenic route, which will give you the best views of Skipton and the surrounding areas.
The walk starts at 8am at the Skipton Community Sports Hub, a brand new fully-accessible facility for the local community, and walkers return to the same venue at the end to receive their well-earned certificate.
Dementia Forward is the leading dementia charity for York and North Yorkshire.
They provide support, advice and information to anybody affected by dementia across the county, and have developed a comprehensive range of services; all with people living with dementia at their heart.
Their mission is:
"To provide accessible and inclusive support, based on a person’s needs, that promotes living well with dementia in our local communities; and to work collaboratively with our partners to achieve this in an equitable way."
Dementia Forward was formed in April 2012 by an experienced team with a profound understanding of dementia, in response to a growing need for support services within local communities.
Entry to the walk is £15 and includes breakfast ( sponsored by Ecology Building Society), a Dementia Forward T-shirt and a goodie bag.
The charity is also encouraging walkers to raise sponsorship money (minimum £50), which will go directly to Dementia Forward, a North Yorkshire charity that provides local support services for people with dementia and their carers.
This event is sponsored by Home Instead and breakfast is kindly provided by Ecology Building Society. To get involved you can book your place here.
