Mark Williamson, owner of The West Arms said:

“As you can imagine we are honoured to welcome such an inspirational sporting personality to Llanarmon DC.  The team have enjoyed having Alex around and talking to him about his incredible achievements. We look forward to welcoming him back again very soon.”

Alex says;

“There is a great atmosphere at The West Arms and nothing is ever too much trouble. The team have been extremely supportive and have shown lots of ‘interest’ in my adventures to raise awareness for Parkinson’s. I am hoping Mark can join me on one of my next four challenges, which together form the 4Deserts Grand Slam in 2020.”

Alex was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease in 2008 and decided to raise funds for and awareness of Parkinson's disease. Under the banner of a challenge entitled 10MillionMetres, Alex has completed many marathons, ultra-endurance races, and triathlons internationally.

Speaking about his ongoing challenges Alex says:

“I’ve decided to do this as there has to be better treatments or even a cure for a disease that robs, the young and old alike, of their independence. I want a cure for millions around the planet.  Together we can make change happen!” #KeepMoving
