Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Anyone can get Parkinson’s, young or old. Every hour, two more people are diagnosed including one of the most amazing people in my life. He is the reason I have taken on this challenge to run my first ever marathon in the beautiful city of York in October.
There are over 40 symptoms. Tremor. Pain. Anxiety. Everyone’s experience is different. And there’s no cure. Yet.
That’s why I’m fundraising for Parkinson’s UK. With your help we can fund better care, drive research breakthroughs and one day find a cure!
