Why I'm fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I’m taking part in Move for Nurses to help fund specialist care for people with Parkinson’s.

This July, I will be moving 25 minutes a day to help fund 25 more Parkinson's nurses. 

Right now, thousands of people with Parkinson’s lack access to the health and care professionals they urgently need. That's why the Parkinson's UK Nurse Appeal aims to fund at least 25 Parkinson’s nurses. Just 25 more nurses could give 7,500 more people access to specialist care. 

Please sponsor me on this challenge to raise £135 which will fund a nurse for half a day.
