I’M RUNNING THE CAMBRIDGE HALF MARATHON ON SUNDAY 8th MARCH 2026, and also THE LONDON VIRTUAL MARATHON on SUNDAY 26th APRIL 2026, Why am I fundraising for Parkinson ' s UK , to find a cure, My sister was diagnosed with Parkinson’ s in 2018 age 43.
Parkinson’s is a complex brain condition that has no cure and gets worse over time. It has more than 40 symptoms, from tremor and pain to anxiety. And Parkinson's is on the rise. Someone is diagnosed every 20 minutes in the UK today. By 2050, the number of people with Parkinson’s worldwide will double to 25 million.
Parkinson’s UK is the charity that’s here to support every Parkinson’s journey, every step of the way. Wherever you’re from, whatever you need.
From searching for a cure and campaigning for better health and care, to funding research into groundbreaking new treatments and running life-changing support services. It’s all driven by one mission: improving life with Parkinson’s.
That’s why I’m fundraising for Parkinson’s UK.
Thank you to my sponsors
