Local Care Home Staff Walk For Charity

Staff at Bayleaf Care Home in Huntingdon have taken part in the ‘Walk 62 Miles in October’ to raise money for Dementia UK.

The team have been walking 2 miles per day to ensure that they met the challenge whilst also raising vital funds to help provide specialist dementia nursing support for more families across the UK.

Residents, their relatives and other staff members were all very supportive and were constantly encouraging the participants throughout the month as they took part in the fundraising challenge.

Olivia Rumball, Home Administrator at Bayleaf Care Home, said:
“Taking part in this challenge has been a huge amount of fun and everyone at the home has been behind us all the way. It’s for such an important cause. I’m very glad to be able to do my bit to raise further awareness and money for the charity.”

Bayleaf Care Home raised a grand total of £986 by completing the challenge, which will be donated to Dementia UK.
