Anna Banks

Hackney Half Marathon 2026

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page!  

I’m running the Hackney Half Marathon in support of Parkinson’s UK, a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart. My why is my Uncle Roy. Watching how Parkinson’s affects him and those around has been tough to say the least. I’ve seen how much strength it takes to face it everyday.


Uncle Roy is truly one of a kind — the best uncle a girl could ever ask for. From buying me every Bob the Builder toy I wanted, to teaching me how to cheat in egg and spoon races. And as an adult, always being in my corner with endless love and encouragement — he’s been a constant source of happiness and support in my life.  

Please consider sponsoring me and helping make a difference. Every donation, big or small, will go towards funding vital research and supporting the Parkinson’s community. 

Thank you for your kindness and support 💙

I’m very impressed you’re running a marathon Anna! It’s something something I’m likely ever to do, but I can make a donation, and I’m doing that in memory of my dad, who had Parkinson’s. Thank you for taking us a step closer to a cure xx
