Parkinson’s UK has launched its annual Walk for Parkinson’s, which includes a walk at Hardwick Hall on Saturday 2 July. Come and explore the grounds in the afternoon sun. Sign up now for a 2 or 5.7 Mile route. The 2 mile route is fully accessible with the 5.7 route more challenging. Both routes start and finish in the courtyard and everyone will set off together at 4:30pm. Sign up now to walk OR volunteer by visiting: https://events.parkinsons.org.uk/walkhardwickhall The money raised by Walk for Parkinson’s will help fund Parkinson’s UK’s vital work, which aims to transform the lives of people with Parkinson’s and their loved ones. In the UK, there are around 145,000 people already living with Parkinson’s, including an estimated 11,600 in the East Midlands.
Broadcaster and journalist Dave Clark is supporting Walk for Parkinson’s. “I’ve been living with Parkinson’s for 11 years now. It’s not always been easy, but I’m determined to stay positive and embrace life. Throwing myself into fundraising and awareness-raising about the condition is one of the ways I do that. Parkinson’s is the fastest growing neurological condition in the world, so finding a cure really can’t wait. Uniting with others to take part in Walk for Parkinson’s is a great way to help move us closer to that goal. Together, we can make a real difference.”
