Great North Run 2024

Harry’s Great North Run 2024

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in the Great North Run on 8 September 2024 to raise vital funds for Parkinson's UK. 

As many of you may know, I am running for Parkinson’s UK as my grandad, Don, had Parkinson’s for over 20 years. It’s been a while since we’ve done any fundraising for them and I want to support a charity so close to my family. My grandma, Margery, who I am very close to, looked after and cared for my grandad for all those years, as well as being a big part of running and organising the local Parkinson’s support group, giving people in and around Thirsk & Northallerton the support they needed, through such a tough disease.

I’m not much of a runner but The Great North Run has always been on my bucket list so I thought why not for 2024! It might even help me lose a bit of weight haha!

Please help by sponsoring me whatever you can. All the money raised will go to Parkinson’s UK nurses, to provide much-needed advice, support and information for people who are living with the condition. 

Thank you to my sponsors
