Story

End to End to End Parkinson's Disease

Patrons The Most Reverend John Sentamu, Archbishop of York; Graham Norton, TV presenter and chat show host;  Carol Malia, BBC Look North; Doug Scott, first Britain to climb Everest: Alan Hinkes mountaineer: Chris Brown mountaineer; Gervaise Phinn author, raconteur; Geoffrey Smith, BBC Gardeners' World; David Fawcett and Andy Reiss, stars of Beyond the Barricade; Richard Dunn, British, Commonwealth and European Heavyweight Champion

Last year, 2008, three riders, all with Parkinson's Disease, cycled end to end, Lands End to John O'Groats, to raise funds for research into a cure for Parkinson's Disease. They hit their target of  £10,000 and raised awareness of the need to put money into rearch into a cure - NOW.

We believe that Parkinson's Disease will be cured.  Research is in its end-game phase. THIS IS THE TIME - to bring Parkinson's Disease to an end

This year we go again, End to End to End Parkinson's Disease and you can join in. Come and pedal a leg for the day or find someone to pedal for you or why not sponsor me. Parkinson's Disease Society Branches are being challenged to find a rider.  For more details of the route the dates and how to join in, please contact endtoendregistration@live.co.uk

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.
