Deep Brain Stimulation

A few weeks ago in April, I was given a life changing opportunity to have DBS deep brain stimulation surgery at John Radcliffe  hospital in Oxford.


Quite simply this very clever technology can reduce tremor in Parkinson’s by up to 85%. The reason that surgery is even available today is because Parkinson’s UK funded a massive part of the research 25 years ago .

. So we are raising money today to hopefully find the cure in 25 years. Technology and medicine moves so quickly that this really is becoming a reality. 


23 people, one 320ft tower, one rope….. go go go!!!

We’re Parkinson’s UK. The charity that’s here to support every Parkinson’s journey, every step of the way. Wherever you’re from, whatever you need.
 
We don’t wait for change, we make it happen. We believe that together we’ll find a cure. But that’s not all we’re working for. We campaign for better health and care, fund research into groundbreaking new treatments, and run life-changing support services.
 
Families, volunteers, campaigners, fundraisers, scientists, health and care workers. We’re a powerful community united by one mission: improving life with Parkinson’s.

Thank you to my sponsors
