Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
We are taking part in Run 50/50 to fundraise for Parkinson's UK.
As many of you know, this is a cause close to our hearts, Dad has been battling for many years now and mum faithfully caring for him the entire time. Parkinson's UK helps to support both patients and carers, please help us, help them, to continue their amazing work.
Neither of us are runners, this is actually a challenge for us both - Running is an asthma trigger for me so even a mile of running will push me, alongside being a working parent, time is also a sticking point. For Damian, although he is a fitness nerd, his spina bifida and achondroplastic stature make it more difficult - he is looking to push further to try for 2 miles per day.
We would like to aim high and try our best to raise £50 a day during the event. It's a REALLY big ask, and our biggest fundraising total yet. Please dig deep, every penny towards our goal is so appreciated.
Much love, Justine and Damian xx
There’s no cure for Parkinson’s. Yet.
I'm uniting with thousands of others to run 50 miles in 50 days with the aim of improving life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s.
Good luck from GG and GM
