Anyone can get Parkinson’s. It gets worse over time and there’s no cure. Yet. Funding research into the most promising treatments, we’re getting closer to a cure. Until then, we're improving life for people with Parkinson’s, and the people in their lives. Together we'll find a cure.

Story

<p>Hello again.</p> <p>After the great success (and slight hip issues) of the BUPA Birmingham Half Marathon last year, which I ran to raise money for the stroke association and in honour of my Granny, I am now hoping to have further success. I will be running the Chester Half Marathon to raise money for my lovely Grandad who unfortunately lost his battle with Parkinsons Disease in March.</p> <p>Parkinsons Nurses and Hereford &amp; District Branch of Parkinsons UK have been a great help and support to my grandad and family and I would like to raise money to support both these worthwhile elements of the charity.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep (or shallow) and donate what you can for a good cause, a great man and a foolish lady!!!!</p>
