Story
My name is Johnny and I am 11 years old.
If you know 66 people, the chances are that you will know someone who suffers from Parkinsons.
My Grandad has Parkinsons. It has been a part of him for the last 19 years. Most people think of Parkinsons as just a shakey arm, but its so much more than that.
It has forced my Grandad into a wheel chair. He needs a full time carer to get him in and out of bed, to get him dressed and to be with him throughout the day.
There is no cure for him or anyone who suffers from Parkinsons.
But one day there might be if we can raise lots of money - for Parkinsons UK. Even if we can raise awareness, then we might make it a bit easier for those who suffer from his horrible disease.
For my part, I'm walking 66 miles from my school to home and then to Wembley Stadium via the Madjeski stadium (the home of the best team in the world) between 19/06/21 and 22/06/21 to raise money and awareness. Its going to be tough, some 16.4 miles a day.
Please help me along the way, to raise as much money as I can, with what ever you can afford.
