Walk for Parkinson's 100 mile challenge 2025

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I’m taking part in Walk for Parkinson’s 100 Mile Challenge to help fund specialist care for people with Parkinson’s.

I'm uniting with thousands of others, all passionate about improving life for people with Parkinson’s.

I have been wanting to do more and to contribute so that maybe I can help others. My dad was diagnosed with Parkinson's and he's done amazingly well, but now at the age of 89 is very difficult to watch the disease progress and take my dad away from the man he once was. 

So this is me doing my small bit, in the hope that there will be another family somewhere in the UK that will benefit from the funds I raise and the support of Parkinsons UK
