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

🏃‍♂️ JJK Backyard Ultra Challenge

📅 Saturday 23rd August 2025 | 🕘 Starts 9AM | 📍 JJK Fitness

🔁 Run. Rest. Repeat. How far can you go?

Join us for an unforgettable endurance challenge as we take on a 6.7km loop every hour, on the hour — run, walk, or mix both! Whether you're pushing your limits or just soaking in the atmosphere, this event is open to all.

We’re inviting everyone to get involved — run one lap, run ten, or just come along to cheer and donate. Every bit of effort and every pound raised will go towards an incredible cause.

💙 Why We’re Raising Money

We’re proud to be supporting Parkinson’s UK, in honour of our much-loved JJK member, Dick.

Dick has been with us for over seven years, and three years ago he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s. Since then, he’s shown incredible courage and commitment, continuing to train with inspiring determination. Exercise plays a crucial role in managing the symptoms of Parkinson’s, and Dick is living proof of the power of movement and mindset.

Parkinson’s UK is a fantastic charity that provides life-changing support to people living with Parkinson’s and their families. They also work with healthcare professionals and fund pioneering research — all with the ultimate aim of finding a cure.

Let’s rally together as a community and show our support. Whether you're running, walking, or donating, you're making a difference.
