Story

I decided to support this charity at the very last minute and this page was created on the 14th June 2010 and the walk is Saturday 20th June 2010 - so your hasty decision to support would be appreciated. 

This is a gruelling 46 miles walk over Cambridgeshire starting at 04:00 am and must be completed by midnight. More details can be found on www.pathfindermarch.co.uk

We have a good friend of the family whose husband is suffering and is progressively getting worse as a result of Parkinson's - it is a terribly affliction and affects all those involved. So....

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

UPDATE: I completed the very painful walk on Saturday. We started walking at 04:00 am with 8 stops most less than 5 minutes and one 20 minute break  (no more than 40 minutes in total ) to have blisters treated. We covered all sorts of terrain, road surface, grass, rough ground and loose hardcore. We finally arrived in at 21:30 after 17.5 hours of non-stop walking. The best bit of the day was to follow, a lovely leg massage from a young lady - BLISS !

So far I have raised over £350, thank you everyone who has donated. 

BUT there is nothing stopping you making a donation now, it will make my walk all the more worth while - thanks

Anyone can get Parkinson’s. It gets worse over time and there’s no cure. Yet. Funding research into the most promising treatments, we’re getting closer to a cure. Until then, we're improving life for people with Parkinson’s, and the people in their lives. Together we'll find a cure.
