Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll neve sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

The team page describes why we are raising money.  My challenge is to ride to from Bristol to Bath and  back on my electric bike with a team of family and friends to support me - The Magnificent Seven ride again!  Whilst on the GDNF trial I completed various long distance routes on my push bike with various combinations of members of the Magnificent Seven, including the150 mile ride from Bristol to Nolton Haven, Pembrokeshire in 3 days.  

My Parkinson's is deteriorating fast now and I no longer receive GDNF.  The 20 mile trip to Bath and back will be a real challenge as my balance and strength are not good.  

Thank you for taking the time to read about our challenge.  If you would now like to donate to support our cause it would be fantastic.  Every little bit counts

I would be really grateful if you could tell two (or more!) people you know who have or know someone who has Parkinson’s about what we are doing and encourage them to read my page too.  Doubling each time the word is passed on will mean we should reach our target in no time at all!  

Thank you, again.

Julia
