<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.</p> <p>On 18th September, I will be doing the Great North Run for Parkinson's UK.&nbsp; Parkinson's is a cruel, progressive&nbsp;neurological condition&nbsp;which&nbsp;two of my grandparents suffered from&nbsp;for&nbsp;many years.&nbsp; Whilst I can no longer&nbsp;help either of them, I have decided to attempt the GNR to raise money to support&nbsp;its sufferers and to work towards finding a cure.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Parkinson's UK is a support and research charity which&nbsp;aims to find a cure for Parkinson's. The money they raise goes towards research, providing advice, funding a freephone helpline and campaigning for support, care and treatment.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>For more information on Parkinson's UK go to: <a href="http://www.parkinsons.org.uk">www.parkinsons.org.uk</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>As you probably know, I am not a natural runner and this is a very&nbsp;big challenge for me.&nbsp; I&nbsp;have already been training for several months and am determined&nbsp;to make sure I can complete the run without the help of an ambulance!!!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I would, therefore, be very grateful if you could consider sponsoring me in my fundraising attempts.&nbsp; Parkinson's UK are&nbsp;a fantastic charity which I am enormously proud to be running for however they are entirely dependent on voluntary donations.</p> <p>&nbsp;</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>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you,</p> <p>Will</p>
