Hello dear research friends, enthusiasts and those who would like to become one!

 

Dawn and I have been back in the UK to do the final workshop two weeks ago and the trip has been just as brilliant as the last one. It was so nice seeing all those great and lovely people again and working together on the programme for next year’s course. Once again, I can only say how much I’m looking forward to spending the next year  in the UK 🙂

The final workshop went really well and it was so great seeing that the people with Parkinson’s liked the programme we co-developed during spring time. Also, it was amazing that almost everybody had returned to join the workshop to give us their feedback. They were genuinely interessted it what we had done and I felt like they really appreciated to be treaten like the experts they are, and without their feedback it would be impossible to design the holistic programme we are aiming for.

Besides the work related stuff as well as meeting kind and lovely people, I had to do some very important PhD work at the UH like for example collecting my GO HERTS! hoodie.

And doesn’t it look great?! Thank you very much again, Dawn, for buying me the second purple hoodie from the sports village.

I also had to finish my Induction Checklist with my other supervisor Lucy, which meant meeting important and helpful people of the UH as well as geeting some adminstrational stuff done like collecting my UH member card. Dawn and Lucy gave me a tour on the campus and pointed out major buildings like the Science Building. It has been a lot of fun and I feel confident now to find my way on campus next year.

On the last day, we had a lovely lunch with Lucy and our collaborator Ruth at a pub called the crooked chimney. I guess you can see where the name comes from, can’t you? 😉
