<p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;">22nd Adventure is an adventurous activities group with strong links to various charitable foundations. For our next major mission we intend to walk from North Wales to South Wales (Prestatyn to Newport) in just 8 days!</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 19px;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">This is in order to to raise awareness for the Parkinson’s and Huntington’s charities. The 177 mile route is largely based along the Anglo-Welsh border following the Offa's Dyke path and is set to be completed by a team of between 8 and 10 volunteers. After our 7 marathon mountainous trek we will be holding an evening event to help raise further funds and awareness for our causes. (venue to be confirmed)</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 19px;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">The 22nd team have completed many walks and charity events before but never anything on this scale. We are confident however that we will have every success.</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 19px;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">Why Huntington’s</span></strong></span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 19px;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">“The subject of Huntington’s itself is one very close to my heart as it affects members of my own family. I personally wish to raise awareness of this condition so that people can better understand it making it easier for people, like myself, to talk about it openly and comfortably.”</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 19px;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">Huntington’s disease is an incurable neurodegenerative genetic disorder that affects muscle coordination and eventually leads to cognitive decline and dementia. Complications due to the disease such as pneumonia and heart disease reduce life expectancy to around twenty years after symptoms begin.”</span></p>
