Sky Sports presenter Dave Clark is to undertake a second fundraising walk in September 2018 raising money for a charity very close to his heart in Parkinsons UK.
Dave helped to raise over £200,000 for Parkinson's UK in 2016, with his Coast-to-Coast walk and is now attempting a second walk hoping to raise another huge amount for the charity. Clark wants to do it now as his symptoms worsen and he sees every step as precious.
"As my Parkinson's symptoms inevitably worsen, walking is becoming increasingly difficult. Every step is precious.
"I've decided to walk the Dalesway. 85 miles, over 6 days from my home town of Ilkley in West Yorkshire to the Lake District.
Please sponsor me if you're able, or maybe join me for a few steps in my march for a cure."

- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
