Anna Rodway

Great North Run 2024

I'm fundraising for Gramps

 I’m taking part in my first half marathon on 8 September to raise money for Parkinson's UK. My Grandpa has been living with Parkinson's disease for the last few years which is a degenerative brain condition. Since his diagnosis, Grandma & Gramps have been supported by the charity Parkinson's UK who do an amazing job to maintain hope and quality of life to those living with Parkinson's.

I would really appreciate any sponsorship to help me along the way. All the money will go to Parkinson’s UK, to provide much-needed advice, support and information for people who are living with the condition and help fund research. 

Running doesn't come naturally to a Rodway so this is a huge challenge - thank you so much for any support you can give.
