Walkies for Parkinson's 2025

Why am I fundraising for Parkinson's UK?

I’m taking part in Walkies for Parkinson's again this year to help fund specialist Parkinson’s care to thousands more people who urgently need it.

I was diagnosed with early Parkinson’s in 2019 which came as a shock and it took me a long time to come to terms with this.  I do my best to carry on as normal but I’m starting to slow down now and can’t do some of the things I loved like owning and riding my own horse

I need to be doing more exercise than I currently do and can clearly feel the benefits when I do.  I enjoy spin classes at Studiobelle and now have a bike at home.

This walk challenge will definitely help me with that. Mike Ellie and Fern all walked with me last year and were great supporters. Willow also joined us too.

If you want to join me on a walk let me know, Ruby and I would love to see you.  

We walked 60 miles last year and raised over £300 it would be great if I could raise that amount again this year. If you can help by donating any amount that would be amazing.

We will keep you updated on our progress.

Love Ruby and Dawn xx

Third day in a row we've been out for a walk

Wednesday 15th Oct
Feeling better now and had a nice walk with Ruby just a mile but it's good to be out in the fresh air.
Should easily do our 30 miles and we'll push on to try and do 60 if we can.

I'm sharing my fundraising page if you feel able to donate any amount it would really encourage us to keep going and will be for a great cause.
Thanks, Dawn and Ruby xx

Walking this week- hoping to make up the miles

Tuesday 14th Oct
Ruby and I have been out walking yesterday and today.
Our aim is to get as many miles completed as possible.

Really hoping we can do 60 but have reset the target to 30.  Being unwell over the last 2 weeks means that we’ve lost a few days.

Feeling better - Back out for a walk

Wednesday 8th Oct
Having Not been well For the last week, I haven't walked as much as I intended. 
Tonight I went for a nice walk with Mike and the three dogs who had great fun chasing the ball. They're all rather tired now..

Planning to get back out from tomorrow and get the miles in. 

If anyone  is free Wants to join us on a walk please let me know we'd love to see you.  

First day first mile

Thursday 2nd Oct
We have started albeit slowly as I have been quite unwell since Friday. 
I managed just over a mile and Ruby had to wait for me as I was a bit breathless and needed a rest.
It’s her birthday today she was 2. Happy Woofday Ruby!, 


Oct nearly here

Monday 29th Sep
Ruby and I are looking forward to clocking up those miles in October. 
We will be aiming to walk every day and will keep you posted on our progress. 
We love your support or for you to join us on a walk. 
Ruby's been getting some sleep in so she's ready

Thank you to my sponsors
