Dear All,
Many of you will remember Alan Hayward, a cameraman who worked on The Trials of Life, Supersense and the first ever series of Big Cat Diary.

Alan retired in the mid-90's when diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease and I was recently contacted by his wife Liz who told me about his latest exploits to raise money for research into the disease.

Later this month Alan will be paddling a homemade canoe thirty miles from Chippenham to Bath - no mean feat for someone now in his 70's.

If you'd like to learn more and support him in raising money for the Parkinson's Disease Society then you can do so by following this link.

...and if you can think of others that may remember Alan, do pass the message on.

Best wishes,
Simon Bell
