Why I am running the great north run for Parkinson’s Uk

Saturday 21st Feb
https://events.parkinsons.org.uk/fundraisers/claireboylan

This September I am running the Great North Run for Parkinson’s UK in memory of my Dad who died with Parkinson’s in May 2025.  It’s a terrible disease. The fastest growing neurological  condition in the UK if not the world (just Google it if you aren’t convinced).  None of us really know if we will get it and none of us really know how we would be affected.   Studies suggest the number of people living with Parkinson’s could double by 2050 compared to 2021.   That means all of us could be affected or know someone who is.   If you are able to donate, we would be very grateful.

Thank you to my sponsors
