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.

Story

On Friday 19 August 2022, at Blaenbwch Farm, Builth Wells, LD2 3HU, I will attempt to break the British Lamb Shearing Record by shearing 873 or more lambs in 9 hours of work.  Starting at 5am, this is a huge challenge both physically and mentally.

I am taking the opportunity to ask people to sponsor my efforts in order to raise money for Parkinson's UK (and Wales Air Ambulance under a separate link).

My grandmother, Eileen Rees, suffered from Parkinson's and passed away in 2021 after a fall as a result of her illness.  I want to raise awareness of this illness and to raise much needed funds to support local people who are also living with this debilitating condition.

I hope to see lots of you on 19 August, and appreciate any and all donations.  Thank you so much for your support.
