Great North Solo Run · 28 June 2020

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

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running 200 miles in 78 days as part of the Great North Run Solo event. Parkinson's disease runs in my family and we have lost several loved ones, including my uncle, my great grandpa and my great grandma. 

Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition which causes problems with the brain that deteriorate over time. Around 145,000 people in the UK have been diagnosed with Parkinson's by many more are affected. Parkinsons are working hard to find a cure so your donations are incredibly valuable.
