Medical research is so so hard. And Parkinson's is one of the toughest nuts to crack. Cure Parkinson's has got a really strong sense of mission and make great progress. A great organisation. Highly recommend this piece by Rory Cellan-Jones open.substack.com/pub/rorycellan…

20 years ago, 10 close friends staggered 26 miles together, raising funds for a cause that became Cure Parkinson's. Tom Isaacs was one: he’d walked 4000 miles to warm up. Story at justgiving.com/fundraising/wi…. Back in 2002-3, our cause needed awareness; now it needs specific funding

This is what drives me. There will likely be several routes to cure. But disease modification - actually changing the pathology of the brain - is our major and urgent focus.

It’s done! Climbed Mt Ventoux 3 times on 2 wheels in 12 hours through sweltering heat. 2 of the 19 riders with me here have Parkinson’s; we all want a cure … please see justgiving.com/page/william-c…

This pod explains why I (would) climb mountains for Cure Parkinson's. Was challenging: Jeremy Paxman and The Hon. Mr Justice Mostyn give me quite a grilling. On Apple & Spotify: “The Cure” episode from 20:05. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/mov…
