My story

Hi Everyone, this is my fundraising page.

This May I will be running the Bupa Great Manchester 10k Run in aid of the Parkinson's Disease Society, I pledged to raise £200 for this event, but, I wanted to do more than that, so I've told them I'm going to run Leeds Half Marathon as well and that I aim to raise £500!

This double header takes part over two consecutive weekends and the tricky bit is that I'll be doing the Half Marathon first, in excess of 21k, and then only have seven days to fire my legs back into action before hitting the streets of Manchester for another 10k! The runs take place on the 10th (Leeds) and the 17th (Manc) of May. I'm pretty keen for the challenge!

Your support in this would be massively appreciated. This cause is one that matters a lot to me and the guys at the Parkinson's Disease Society do amazing work in researching a cure for Parkinsons and providing support to it's sufferers and their families.

You know the score, 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.

Massive thank you for your support!

Andy

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.
