Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in the Manchester Marathon for Parkinson’s UK and would really appreciate your support!
Please help by sponsoring my challenge. All money raised will help fund breakthroughs and help support the Parkinson's community.
My updates
Hello!
Monday 20th Apr Chances are if you’ve found this page you already know me and my story. If not here it is.My deeply loved Grandad, Michael, passed away recently on 12/04/26. He fought his battle with Parkinson’s for nearly 15 long years. He lived an immensely impressive life- from being an engineer of the Rolls Royce RB-211 engine to his years spent with the internationally successful Drummond Endurance team. He was an incredible man who lived an incredible life.
I’ve taken on the (INSANE) challenge of running this marathon in honour of him and to raise money for Parkinson’s UK to help other people with their fight against this truly horrid disease.
Please help in any way you can- donations, tips or words of encouragement. Every little thing will help me across that finish line.
Lots of love
Gem xx
