2022 Oxford Walk for Parkinson’s
The Oxford Walk for Parkinson’s was back in the delightful setting of Wytham Woods this year. The period of mourning for the late Queen caused it to be postponed from mid-September to early October, but it was still well-supported and raised more than £13,000 that will go to supporting local research projects.
Special congratulations go to Nick Wrigley, who had collected over £1000 sponsorship. He could not participate on the altered date, but instead created his own challenge by walking 6 miles of the Thames Path to fulfil his promise to sponsors. Here he is between Henley and Shiplake. Nick says “One day, I hope I can say I HAD Parkinson’s”!
The weather on the day was perfect. The event organization, masterminded by Katy Slade of Parkinson’s UK, was excellent, and as you can see from these pictures, the atmosphere was fabulous. (Click the small images to view them full-size.)
