My story
My Uncle John was a dedicated runner who ran every day. Among other feats, he completed the Great North Run in under one-and-a-half hours after the age of 40.
Now in his early sixties, John no longer runs. He's been battling Parkinson's Disease for around ten years.
It's a degenerative disease of the nervous system associated with trembling of the arms and legs, stiffness and rigidity of the muscles and slowness of movement. It often leads to even more severe problems.
There's no cure for Parkinson's at present, but scientists believe that could change within a generation. With your help, it can.
Once again, I'll be tackling the Great North Run this year for Parkinson's UK, running towards my home town, South Shields, hoping that every step might bring us closer to a cure.
What will your donation buy?
£2 is enough to pay for Parkinson's UK DVD 'Being There' to be sent to someone recently diagnosed with Parkinson's.
£26 can pay for a nurse to answer calls on a helpline for one hour.
£150 can fund a Parkinson's nurse for one day, providing specialist care for people with the condition.
£1000 could fund a cutting-edge research project for a week.
Please give whatever you can. Thanks.

My charity
Parkinson’s UK
Charity Registration No. 258197 and Scotland SC037554
Every hour, someone in the UK is told they have Parkinson’s. Because we’re here, no one has to face Parkinson’s alone. We bring people with Parkinson’s, their carers and families together via our network of local groups, our website and free confidential helpline. Specialist nurses, our supporters and staff provide information and training on every aspect of Parkinson’s. As the UK’s Parkinson’s support and research charity we’re leading the work to find a cure, and we’re closer than ever. We also campaign to change attitudes and demand better services. Our work is totally dependent on donations. Help us to find a cure and improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s.
