SKYDIVE FOR PARKINSON’S UK
Parkinson's UK doesn't just just help fund groundbreaking research! Amongst many other things it also provides vital support for those and their families living with Parkinson's, works with the NHS to improve services and provides training to upskill healthcare professionals.
In March 2023 my husband, Jonathan, was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at the age of 56. Parkinson's is not just an 'old person's disease'. Around 1800 under 50's in the UK live with Parkinson's. Around 153,000 people in total. Whilst Parkinson's isn't a death sentence, it's life changing.
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in a Skydive on 20th September 2025 for Parkinson’s UK and would really appreciate your support!
Please help by sponsoring me with whatever you can. The money raised will change the lives of the Parkinson's community.

Tuesday 11th Mar Hi there. Thank you for sponsoring me! In order to be in the best health for this skydive I have joined a gym. Although you don't need to be super fit, I feel like I ought to lose a couple of kilos 😄 to spare the poor person I'm going to be attached to! I also want to feel stronger. 💪 ShareThank you to my sponsors
