Living Positively with Parkinson’s
Some Wairarapa people living with Parkinson’s gathered at the Carterton Court House recently to listen to and be motivated by former boxer Billy Graham.
A former New Zealand and Australasian light welterweight boxing champion, Billy Graham has spent a lifetime involved in sport and physical fitness.
He has achieved international success through goal-setting and determination, turning common sense into an art form.
Billy is now a world-class international speaker, a great motivator and fitness advisor. He puts his winning philosophy into practice every day of his life and delights in sharing his zest for living with others.
From humble beginnings in Naenae, Billy has faced life head-on with enthusiasm, and this was evident during the afternoon. His warm and passionate presentation inspired the group to challenge their outlook and increase their potential.
The afternoon ended with a chin-wag over refreshments as people reminisced over their past youth.
Parkinson’s Wairarapa is keen to present several ‘Living Positively with Parkinson’s’ events during the year.
Some will be Parkinson’s specific while others will be similar to the February event – enabling us to live positively. If you would like to be included on the invite list please get in touch.
