Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in the Manchester Marathon for Parkinson’s UK and would really appreciate your support! 

I wanted to support Parkinson's UK as I use charity gigs to raise money to run marathons. My great friend and ex-bass player has Parkinson's and since he supported my hobby for so many years I felt I should try to raise money to help fund Parkinson's research. So, if you can sponsor me - or you have won the charity auction of a guitar at one of our gigs - thank you!

Please help by sponsoring my challenge. All money raised will help fund breakthroughs and help support the Parkinson's community.

Sunday 1st Mar
Training going well - getting up to 50k a week in on training, and have another half marathon trail run competition this weekend. Also, had a great gig on Friday night that raised over £200 - special thanks to the guys who won the guitar charity auction - that raised £120 on its own. We are now only 7 weeks to go so booked my trains and hotel and just need to put in the miles...

Thank you to my sponsors
