Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page in support of Parkinson’s Disease research. There is no cure for Parkinsons Disease, a progressive neurological condition, and no way to stop the disease from getting any worse. My dad died in 2016 from CJD, a fatal degenerative brain disorder so I am passionate about supporting research in this area. 

This will be my first half marathon having only run a 10K before and I am nervous about the hilly nature of the course!!

Affecting 145,000 people in the UK alone in 2020, new treatments are needed to stop Parkinson’s in its tracks.

Together with your support, we can make a real difference. Our research will result in a huge leap forward towards personalised treatments for Parkinson's:
·Finding personalised treatments for patients to slow or even stop how quickly the disease takes hold
· Speeding up the development of new treatments
· Improving the effectiveness and outcomes of clinical trials

Your donations will support this important work, helping our researchers to lead the way in developing new treatments for Parkinson's Disease.
