In 2019, sixty-year-old Guy Deacon, a former British Army officer, drove from his home in Dorset through 25 African countries, to Cape Agulhas. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2010 and, as an ambassador for the charities Parkinson's America and Cure Parkinson's, hoped to raise awareness of the issues associated with the disease in Africa.

"An immense feat of endurance, a remarkable achievement, and a truly inspirational adventure filled with courage and hope." Sir Randolph Fiennes
