About My Challenge
My journey starts on the 1st of March and I will be walking 18 miles every week until I make it to Edinburgh castle on the 11th July! Actually walking to Edinburgh would take a lot of planning so walking the equivalent distance is more achievable and works better alongside uni life.
I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK by walking the distance of Cheltenham to Edinburgh. Parkinson's UK is a charity that I want to support as my granddad has Parkinson's and I have seen how it has affected and impacted his life. I want to be able to help fund the research and support systems that they have in place.
The Parkinson's website states that: 'Around 153,000 people live with Parkinson's in the UK. And it's the fastest growing neurological condition in the world.'
