The Strathroy Seniors Centre was home to the 4th annual Walk-It for Parkinson’s event which took place Sunday. Lots of people came out to support the day, which ended up raising $7,240 for the Parkinson’s Society of Canada. President of the local Parkinsons Society Brad Richards says it’s a commonly known disease, but talking about it remains important.
He says he was really pleased with this year’s fundraiser. The total amount raised over the four years falls a few hundred dollars short of $54,000.
