Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
I’m taking part in my 22nd Great North Run on 8 September 2024 to raise vital funds for Parkinson's UK.
As a family we have suffered great loss as a result of Parkinson's Disease. In September 2019 we sadly lost our Mum following her 8 year battle with the Disease. Our Dad devoting every hour of every day to her care.
Following Mum's passing, we hoped Dad would be able to try and enjoy life, a bit more after a difficult few years. Alas lockdown happened, then we were devastated (during 2021) to discover that Dad had also been diagnosed with Parkinson's.
Dad deteriorated quite quickly and we sadly lost him December 2022.
To lose 2 parents to Parkinson's disease in such a short space of time was incredibly difficult for us. I am therefore going to run the Great North Run 2024 in memory of our wonderful parents, who we miss so so dearly.
We as a family would appreciate any sponsorship be it large or small, so we can raise enough money for Parkinson's Disease UK charity, that will help both research (for a cure) and also help Parkinson’s UK nurses, who provide much-needed advice, support and information for people who are living with the condition.
Thanks so much
