How will you Walk with us?
Join your community and make new friends, while enjoying a fun spring day out for the whole family!
Show your Parkinson's Spirit and walk with us this year, and we join together in solidarity and strength. Let's Walk Together for Parkinson's WA.
For some, A Walk in the Park is an achievement equivalent to a marathon, but for others it is a slow and reflective journey shared with loved ones or in memory of someone special. This event raises essential funds for those living with Parkinson’s in the WA community by contributing to the unique community-based Parkinson’s Nurse Specialist service, with a range of other assistance initiatives such as Seminars, Support Groups and Carers Groups.
Event Day
Gates open at 9.00am. It is a good idea to arrive early you can get a good spot and enjoy the garden games and activities.
