Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

In 2024 my lovely Dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s. He is doing amazingly well and with the support of Parkinson’s UK lives life to the full. He enjoys walking nearly every day and takes regular short breaks in the UK with his wife. He is lucky enough to have a Parkinson’s support group nearby which he enjoys attending every week. 

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.
