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.

Dad lived with Parkinson’s for 15 years before he died in 2019, although we really lost him some years before. His dad also had the disease and died when he was not much older than I am now.

Please help me to raise money to help Parkinson's UK continue the great work they do to help find a cure so that other families don’t have to see their loved ones suffer from this awful disease.

I'm running the London Marathon to raise money for Parkinson's UK and also because this is something I've wanted to do for a long time but never believed I could. Having never run more than a half-marathon before, I'm still not sure how I'll get on, but I'm looking forward to giving it a good go!

The final reason is that I've previously taken part in the RideLondon 100 for Parkinson's and also the Serpentine swim, so this is the last of the London Classics - I'm expecting this to be the toughest!
