Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I’m taking part in Walkies for Parkinson's to help fund specialist Parkinson’s care to make sure no one faces Parkinson’s alone.

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

Henry - 15th October

Friday 16th Oct
We had a nice red walk along the prom between Minnis Bay & Epple Bay. The tide was right in so no sand to run on but Henry decided to launch himself off a slip way and have a swim anyway! After a nice warm shower & bubbles, Henry smells lovely! 🥰 A walk in the evening, on the lead around Birchington to clock up 4miles today. Can’t believe we are half way through this challenge - well done Henry 🐾

It’s been a busy day today so we’ve only managed two short walks. The morning walk was a nice off the leaf walk along Grenham Bay prom practicing recall & walking to heel. Henry enjoyed the left over sausages from last night’s class! We then had a midnight walk around the houses - Henry always on the lookout for hedgehogs & foxes! 🐾

Henry went for a walk this afternoon - enjoyed the same route as yesterday as we needed to go back to the High St, we enjoyed going to Epple Bay and back along the prom. Henry went to his class tonight & had a nice time with his friends, and getting lots of treats! A quick walk when we got home! 🐾

Henry resting after enjoying two walks today, his first one was up to the local High St then onto Epple Bay before coming back home along the prom. The evening walk was down to Minnis Bay and then back through the houses! 🐾

A dry, sunny afternoon. Henry enjoyed his walk with Lucy, around Plum Pudding in the opposite direction then heading onto the prom back along to Minnis Bay. A great photo opportunity but couldn’t get them both to sit/stand nicely at the same time! Took Lucy back home, then headed home through the houses. Another walk in the evening about 11pm just to get some fresh air before bedtime! 🐾

A lovely sunny day, but very cold and windy. Went out for two shorter walks today. This afternoon walked towards Epple Bay, turned down into the prom and back along, coming up by the nursing home to get out of the wind, and back home. This evening went for a walk down to Minnis Bay, around the houses and back home. It was very exciting as Henry spotted two hedgehogs and a fox! 🐾

Cloudy and windy today, managed to go out for a walk in the morning before the rain started. Headed towards Epple Bay before turning down onto the prom and along to Minnis Bay. Stole some squid out of the fisherman’s bag, but dropped it as it was very slippery. Returned home, then went up to the train station, around the houses and back home. Managed a quick naughty swim along Grenham Bay so had to have a shower when we got back home!

A lovely, warm, sunny day. We had a nice walk along the prom at Minnis Bay. We stopped to watch the tractor ploughing the field, we then walked round Plum Pudding. Went training in the evening and then a walk round the houses before going back home! 🐾
