Individual UK Runs 2026

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

Hi I am Louis age 7 and I am running my first ever Bournemouth junior run on the 10th October. I am running for my Grandad John who has advanced Parkinson’s who is in the train picture with me when I was younger. Thank you for supporting me.

Parkinson’s is a complex brain condition that has no cure and gets worse over time. It has more than 40 symptoms, from tremor and pain to anxiety. And Parkinson's is on the rise. Someone is diagnosed every 20 minutes in the UK today. By 2050, the number of people with Parkinson’s worldwide will double to 25 million.

Parkinson’s UK is the charity that’s here to support every Parkinson’s journey, every step of the way. Wherever you’re from, whatever you need.

From searching for a cure and campaigning for better health and care, to funding research into groundbreaking new treatments and running life-changing support services. It’s all driven by one mission: improving life with Parkinson’s.

That’s why I’m fundraising for Parkinson’s UK. 

Thank you to my sponsors
