My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My challenge: To run 96 miles along The West Higland Way over two days.

I am always trying to make the most of my days and I can usually be found rushing around. So, with a free weekend in my diary, I have decided that starting on Saturday 9th July I will attempt to run the length of the West Highland Way, 96 miles, in two days.

The first day will see me run from Milngavie to Tyndrum (53 miles) I will then allow myself a good nights sleep before completing the challenge the following day.

Why? Because my dad has suffered from Parkinson's disease for over 16 years and his dream was to walk the length of the West Highland Way one day. Unfortunately, due to the crippling nature of Parkinson's my dad can't complete the walk, so, I have decided to do it for him!

I know it is a tough time at the moment but anything you are able to donate would be very much appreciated.

  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

  

So please dig deep and I thank you in advance for your donation.

 

Many thanks

Tracey

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.
