Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for Parkinson’s UK where I am, with your support, raising those crucial funds that will, one day, through the vital research, lead to the breakthrough and find that elusive cure for Parkinson’s.
Until then, your generosity will help the community nurses provide the support and rest bite to those with complex care needs because of the condition, through to the teams of experts in hospitals performing absolute miracles to give those with the condition a better way of life.
I have personally seen what this awful disease does to, not only to the person who has been diagnosed with the condition, but also the family and support network of those around the person.
It is over 20 years since I completed my last Half Marathon. I know it will take a lot of blood, sweat and tears to complete the challenge this time, but I know that it will not be the same compared to the daily challenges faced by those people I know that have this condition, and who are so inspirational and never give in, so nor will I.
They have put their lives in the medical profession experts hands so they can once again be with their loved ones, friends and family.
They are the reason that I am taking on this challenge, and when I cross the Finish line it will be because of them.
Please donate whatever you can.
Thank you.
Good luck Kelly and thank you for raising money for this Charity.
