Peter Brown
Peter Brown attended his first A Walk in the Park in 2024 and will be one of our A Walk in the Park ambassadors in 2025.
I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson’s at the beginning of 2024. My head was still spinning from the diagnosis and my neurologist suggested I visit the Fight Parkinson’s website for information and support. I came across A Walk in the Park and right there and then, I decided to focus my energy on raising money and awareness through this event.
The actual event was a game-changer for me as I met so many new people who were willing to share their stories and Parkinson’s journey.
Raising money for this wonderful charity really became clear to me as the year wore on as I have used their website tools, joined the Young Onset Parkinson's Peer Support Group and reached out several times to the Fight Parkinson’s Team for advice.
I am proud to be an ambassador in 2025 and look forward to seeing even more people there, raising awareness of Parkinson's and fundraising for Fight Parkinson's so they can continue their valuable work.
