I am raising funds in honour of our dear Dad, David.

I’m taking part in Run 50/50 to fundraise for Parkinson's UK, to support their work and research.   There is no cure for Parkinson’s Disease yet.  I'll be walking a mile a day, for 50 days (starting on 1st March), to help raise funds.

We lost our beloved Dad, David, shortly after Christmas 2024.  He had Parkinson's Disease with Lewy Bodies and became very poorly with pneumonia and was in hospital when he passed away.  Dad was a wonderful family man; very kind, loving, brave and funny.  In loving memory of Dad, and for all those struggling with this terrible disease, and for their loved ones and carers, I am taking on this challenge.  For you, my darling Dad - every day, every step of the way. ❤️ Thank you so much, if you are able to support me!

I pass Forget-Me-Nots on my walk every day, they always make me think of my Dad.  He loved Spring and the garden coming-to after the winter months.  This is the last week of my walk, almost there!  Thank you so very much to everyone who has kindly sponsored me.  Xxx I love and miss you, Dad! ❤️ 🏃‍♀️ 🌷 

Halfway there!
