Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you know I suffer from Parkinson's Disease and have now been living with it for 21 years. Parkinson's is a degenerative condition, as such my symptoms continually worsen. Which about a year ago put me in a very dark place and was struggling to find a way out of it.

I was put in contact with Parkinsons.me. Which is an Oxfordshire based charity for Oxfordshire residents, offering support both for sufferers and their families.

I feel that I would like to give something back to the charity to help other Families like mine, I've given it a lot of thought and have decided to walk a MARATHON ( 26 miles and 385 yards!! ) throughout the month of October.

This may not sound much to most people but for me this will be a huge challenge as I really struggle with walking. Sam will be doing the walk with me.

If you feel able to support Me and the charity I would really appreciate it.

Please feel free to share my page

Many thanks

Colin
