Putting my nervous trembles to good use for Parkinson’s NZ

Took on this 8 week fight camp to work on my physical & mental health. Learning essential boxing skills from the talented team at Boxing Alleys Fit to Fight challenge culminating in a charity fight night on the 2nd of July.

Have had a short stint of COVID through this training camp. However what better motivation to stay committed than supporting a charity close to my heart Parkinson’s NZ - who in turn support those living with various stages of Parkinson’s.

I am raising money for Parkinson’s NZ, a cause which mean a lot to me. My grandfather, an able-bodied, energetic man was unfortunately diagnosed with Parkinson’s at an advanced stage in the early 2000’s. We watched his fine motor skills deteriorate from the effects of Parkinson’s, with little to no treatment options available at that stage.

Parkinson’s NZ provide;

- Education, information & clinical referrals

- Trained support caregivers

- Home visits, exercise sessions, social and support

- specialist Nurses & much more.

All donations are greatly appreciated and I look forward to wrapping up for Parkinson’s NZ.
