Mat and Chris with Bransty Social Club

Parkinsons Ocean Challenge would like to say a big thank to the Bransty Social Club for kindly donating £200. Many Thanks 

Hello to all  

Today we had a interview with a photographer for the local paper in our home town of Whitehaven.  Jim Davidson kindly met with us to hear about the challenge and to take some photos of us down at the harbour.  

After some fine tips on our posture and general photogenic qualities, or should we say lack of our photogenic qualities!!  We finally got some photos taken with the sea as the back drop.  As a result of today there will be an article appearing in the local press.  The Whitehaven news and the evening News and Star.  We have also recently had an article printed in the Maritime Journal courtesy of the Editor Larz Bourne so thank you to them for the support.  Please follow the link below for a look a their website and the article they wrote.
