Fund-raisers from across the north-east and beyond amassed almost £4,000 by completing a charity trek around a Moray estate.
More than 80 people took part in the first Walk for Parkinson’s event at Brodie Castle, outside Forres, at the end of last month and yesterday organisers confirmed the impressive tally they raised.
Participants could choose to walk a mile around the castle’s pond area or embark on a five-mile journey around the surrounding Culbin Forest.
So far £3,815 has been collected for Parkinson’s UK.
The charity’s community and events fundraiser, Jan Mattison, praised the efforts of those involved as well as the scenic setting.
She said: “It was fantastic to see so many people turn out for the walk and their fundraising efforts have been brilliant, we’re well on our way to meeting our target of £4,000 for the event.
“It is the first time Walk for Parkinson’s has come to Brodie Castle and it was the perfect location.
“The funds raised from the event will help us to improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s in Scotland.”
The walk, which took place on Sunday, June 28, is one in a series of 25 Walk for Parkinson’s events held across the UK during the spring and summer months.
The tower house at Brodie Castle was built in 1567, by the Brodie Clan.
The National Trust for Scotland property is now open to tourists during the summer months and is used for weddings and other events.
