    “I felt honoured to be involved in the production/proof reading of Simon’s 4th book, Parkinson’s - Take a Walk With Me. The book is written with humour on a subject which could very easily be melancholy, and whilst not avoiding the truth about this degenerative neurological condition, Simon takes you on a journey with earnest compassion. A great read for everyone, especially for anyone remotely connected to Parkinson’s Disease, this is an uplifting, supportive and reaffirming read; life is still to be enjoyed no matter what the adversity.” - Sharon Timms
