All monies raised from this sponsored walk have been donated to
Parkinson's UK
Target: £10,000.00
I aimed to raise £10,000 for Parkinson's UK to help find a cure for Parkinson’s Disease, which will help people like my friend in Austria who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's fairly recently.
I have paid all the costs I incurred on the walk, ensuring that 100% of the money donated goes to the charity*. For some overnight stays, friends/family provided accommodation and/or support.
On some parts of the walk, I was joined by friends/family.
