Alex Flynn was just 36 years old when a tremor in his finger first alerted him to what would later be diagnosed as Parkinson’s disease, but 13 years on he is still pushing himself to his limits and is planning on climbing Mount Everest.
Alex, who is now 49, has made headlines in the past with some of the extreme challenges he has taken on to raise money and awareness for Parkinson’s, including marathons, ultra-endurance races, triathlons, and even his own staircase.
Alex was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at 36 but is determined to climb Mount Everest…
I continue to work closely with Alex to help support his appeal and have secured interviews with the Press Association, The Inews and the LADbible Group.

“I am determined to do this not just for myself in order to prove we can go beyond that which we think is possible but for all the others that suffer with Parkinson’s, other neurological diseases and the associated side effects. To prove that disability is no disadvantage and we can all be extraordinary!”.
