Great North Run 2024

Running the Great North Run in tribute to my grandmother Rita

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

My much beloved grandmother Rita Bowen sadly passed away on the 16th October 2023 at the age of 87.  During the last few years of her life, she had a long battle with Parkinson's disease.  Despite the challenges, she remained a strong & caring mother, grandmother, sister and wife.  Her passing is very much missed throughout the family.

My grandfather Eddy is a big fan of sports, especially  athletics & long distance running. He loves to tell me many stories about his past running journeys and always badgers me to get out and start running. 

So, I've finally made the decision to run my first ever Great North Run and run it to say thank you to 2 amazing grandparents.

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
