Story

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.

I have taken on the 344 mile challenge to raise awareness and money for Parkinson's UK. In the last few years, we have sadly had close family and friends who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's.

So, what is it? Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition. This means that it causes problems in the brain and gets worse over time. There are many potential signs and symptoms such as tremors, rigidity (stiffness) of muscles, slowness of movement, mild memory and thinking problems, sleeping problems, pain and mental health problems, including anxiety and depression.

There's currently no cure for Parkinson's, but there are lots of different treatments, therapies and support available to help manage the condition for those who suffer from the condition

Please donate what you can to help the Parkinson's UK team carry on their good work in providing the treatments and support to those who need it.

Thank you so much for the support and motivation to complete this challenge.

Much love!

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.
