Walk for Parkinson's: Maidstone 2025

Fundraising...

We'll be straight with you: this is the first time we've tried our hand at fundraising. We have supported many initiatives through our church, but we've never tried our hand at any sort of fundraising on our own.

But now that our dad is suffering from Parkinson's, we have become acquainted with this wonderful organisation, Parkinson's UK, and all the work they are doing for this terrible disease that has no cure. They have already directly helped us with an application that we never would have been able to complete on our own, and we have also seen other lives changed and helped, so it's time we joined the team!

So far, we've had one donation, so that's pretty good, but we have set a goal of £500 by June, and for this cause, we are really hoping to reach that goal, or even exceed it! Please give what you can!

We'll be walking for for Parkinson's UK!

Parkinson's is the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world, and currently, there is no cure. In the UK, around 153,000 people are already living with Parkinson’s. With population growth and ageing, this is likely to increase to around 172,000 people in the UK by 2030. Every hour, 2 more people are diagnosed. That's the same as 18,000 people every year. 

Our dad has had Parkinson's for several years, and we care for him.

Our whole family, dad included, will be walking to support the work of Parkinson's UK. We're walking to help fund specialist Parkinson’s care to thousands more people who urgently need it.

Many more people are uniting to help people with Parkinson’s, and those who love and care for them, get access to the support they need.
