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

On the 26th of July 2009 I will be starting out on the 875 mile
London - Edinburgh - London bike ride.
My aim is to complete it in under 5 days, that's more than 200 miles cycling each day!


Last year, along with two good friends, I cycled from Lands End to John O'Groats. Almost the same distance, but in 8 days.  That was a real challenge, so this years ride is in a different league all together.

I have two Uncles who have had Parkinson's Disease for a number of years. I wish to raise money for Research aimed at finding a cure for this debilitating disease.

You can keep track of my progress during the ride on: www.lel09.co.uk    Where I plan to regularly update my location and some info about what's going on..

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Parkinson's Disease Society gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Please sponsor me now!
