London Landmarks Half Marathon 2027

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon to raise vital funds for Parkinson's UK. 

I'm not just running 13.1 miles. I'm running for the man who helped raise me, who showed me what kindness looked like, and who I miss every single day.

In 2027, I'll be taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon in memory of my Grandad, who lived with Parkinson's disease.

My Grandad was one of the most selfless, thoughtful and genuinely good people I've ever known. Parkinson's may have been part of his story, but it never took away the incredible person he was.

Sadly, I lost my Grandad, and this challenge is for him. Every step I take will be in his honour, while raising money for Parkinson's UK so that one day fewer families have to experience the heartbreak this disease can bring.

If you're able to donate, no matter how much, I'd be incredibly grateful. Thank you for helping me celebrate his life and support such an important cause. 🤍
