Why I chose Parkinsons UK

Both my grandparents have been affected by the illness with one being a longer term issue and the other being a more recent case. Seeing the change in how they act and their health is something that other grandchildren and relatives shouldn't have to experience and to think that it's only going to get worse is a hard reality to accept.

Recently one of my grandparents has been in hospital due to Parkinson’s worsening and it genuinely has an impact on the whole family. There are millions of families who experience the exact same thing every year and Parkinson’s UK is a charity that needs funding to help support these families.

Any money donated would be very appreciated and the reason for every mile of training will be to fight the illness.
