Why i'm walking for Parkinson's UK 💙

Every morning and evening, Millie, my dog, and I head out for our daily walks. Being able to get outside, move my body and enjoy these simple moments is something I feel truly privileged to do.

As an NHS phlebotomist, I see day to day how difficult it can be for people living with Parkinson’s to move their bodies and carry out things that many of us take for granted. It’s a reminder never to underestimate the importance of movement and independence.

That’s why I’m taking part in Walkies for Parkinson’s. I want to help raise awareness and support Parkinson’s UK in the amazing work they do for people living with this condition and their families.

For me, walking Millie isn’t just part of our daily routine — it’s a reminder of how lucky I am to be able to do it. If my walks can help make a difference to someone living with Parkinson’s, then every step is worthwhile. 🐾💙

Thank you so much to everyone who donates and supports me. Every contribution, no matter how small, really does help! 💙
