Shake Well Before Use: From Coastin' To Cure Parkinson's

Cure Parkinson's

3 hours ago

Tom Isaacs was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at just 27. Seven years later, he set out to walk the entire coastline of Britain, 4,500 miles, with his trademark humour, honesty, and an unwavering belief that something better was possible. His journey became a story far bigger than one man and a map. It helped start a movement. And it helped to create Cure Parkinson’s, inspiring countless more lives along the way. In this series, we follow Tom’s footsteps through his original audiobook, Shake Well Before Use - told in his own voice, one chapter at a time.
