Herrema Hustlers

The Herrema Hustlers are taking on this year's Superwalk in support of Audrey Herrema, our fearless leader whose daily challenges dealing with Parkinson's may slow her down but don't dampen her spirit and determination to live large! 

Despite recent health challenges Audrey is determined to raise funds and participate in the Cobourg SuperWalk this year. Our team and donor community can make a difference by supporting Audrey's efforts and raising funds that can directly impact her treatment and care including essential community supports. 

Our team is walking in the Parkinson Canada SuperWalk to raise money for Parkinson Canada which will empower the Parkinson's community through tailored support, innovative research and raising the voice of all those impacted by Parkinson's.

More than 100,000 Canadians live with Parkinson's, a number expected to increase substantially in the coming years, with 30 Canadians diagnosed each day.

Parkinson's is a disease that affects not only individuals but also families, friends and care partners who come together to manage the realities of Parkinson's.

Parkinson's is the fastest growing neurological disorder in the world. In the brain, nerves exchange signals through dopamine, a chemical that controls movement. Parkinson's symptoms occur when cells that produce dopamine die. Currently, there is no cure, and the need is only increasing. By 2031, the number of people living with Parkinson's in Canada will more than double. The support you provide makes a positive impact: improving the quality of life for people living with Parkinson's disease as well as finding a cure.

Your donation can help our team reach our goal, and together, we can inspire and empower people living with Parkinson's to thrive. Because living well is still possible.
