I am pleased and privileged to be able announce my little contribution to helping to inform the public about Parkinsons – how it affects those diagnosed, and what some dedicated people are doing to raise awareness and raise funds for research and care.
I introduce a wonderfully engaging radio show in which a great friend and colleague Colleen Henderson-Heywood chats to ‘Fix Parkinson’s’ founder Simon Laverick. In addition to discussing how people might be impacted by a diagnosis, they also provide details about a major challenge due to be undertaken later this month. A team of willing volunteers will set off to canoe from Fort William to Inverness.
