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.

On Monday 6th June I'll be starting a 1200 mile cycle from Lands End to John O Groats. The plan is to cycle between 80-120 miles per day. The ride will be unsupported - in other words- me, my bike and  my 20 year old panniers will be making our own way up the country. 

Those that know me well know that I quite like a cycle-so it feels a bit strange to be asking for sponsorship. The reason to ask you for sponsorship is my father in law Geoff. 

Geoff has been living with Parkinsons for several years. It's a very challenging disease both for Geoff and his family. Geoff is also a bit of a military hero having reached a senior rank in the RAF and fought in wars for his country. Anyone who knows Geoff also knows what a fantastic and loving character he is.

My bike ride therefore seems like a great opportunity to raise funds for Parkinsons UK - the charity that Geoff and Tricia (Geoffs wife) have suggested. Parkinsons UK are both looking for a cure (which there has been great progress on) and also seeking to change attitudes to the disease. 

Please be generous and thank you for your support.
