London Landmarks Half Marathon 2027

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I’m taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2027 to raise vital funds for Parkinson's UK. 

My Grandad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, and I’ve watched the condition gradually take away so much from him. Seeing someone you love lose the ability to do things many of us take for granted is heartbreaking, especially knowing that, right now, there is no cure.

I’m running because I can. Every step I take in this half marathon is for those whose legs no longer allow them to.

If you’re able to support my fundraising, no matter how big or small the donation, I’d be so grateful. Together, we can help improve the lives of those living with Parkinson’s and fund vital research to bring us closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure. 💙🏃🏻‍♀️
