Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
I’m thrilled to be running the TCS 2025 London Marathon in support of Parkinson’s UK—a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart.
I was lucky enough to secure a ballot place, and I’m using this opportunity to raise funds for Parkinson’s UK, a charity that has been an invaluable resource for my family. My Mum has Parkinson’s, and their helpline, magazine, and expert advice have helped us navigate the immense challenges that come with the condition.
Every donation, big or small, will help fund groundbreaking research and provide crucial support for the Parkinson’s community. Please consider sponsoring me—together, we can make a real difference!
Thank you to my sponsors

I filled out this field with a heartfelt and well-drafted comment a few days ago, but couldn’t “submit” it or my payment because of lack of Apple Pay option (which, as you know is such an enabler for a blind person wanting to pay without sighted assistance)… seems like I’ll have to go to my voice memo of my card details, and do it the laborious way! 🤞. Big love to you always and especially on the day! And thanks so much for all that you do :). Lots of love from Charmaine, Simon, Alex and Sofia :) xxx
