Story
We are raising money for Parkinson’s UK because Parkinson’s has had a significant impact on people close to our family, and we have seen first-hand the challenges that come with this condition.
Parkinson’s is the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world, and there are currently around 166,000 people living with Parkinson’s in the UK. Every year, approximately 28,000 people are diagnosed – that’s one person every 20 minutes. Despite this, thousands more people are believed to be living with Parkinson’s without a diagnosis or access to the support they need.
Parkinson’s affects not only those diagnosed but also their families, friends, and loved ones. It can impact movement, speech, sleep, mental wellbeing, and independence, creating daily challenges that many people never see.
By supporting Parkinson’s UK, we hope to help fund ground-breaking research, improve access to specialist care and support services, and move closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure.
Every donation, no matter how large or small, will help make a difference. Thank you for supporting this cause and helping to improve the lives of everyone affected by Parkinson’s.
