Edinburgh Half Marathon

Tuesday 10th Mar

In May I will be running the Edinburgh Half Marathon to raise money for Parkinson’s UK.

I’m doing this in support of my Grandpa, who has Parkinson’s. Seeing how this disease has affected him over the past few years has really shown me how important the work of Parkinson’s UK is. Taking on this  challenge feels like a small way I can support him just has he has always supported us! 

Parkinson’s UK does incredible work providing support services for people living with the condition to help make everyday life a little easier. They also fund vital research to improve treatments and work towards hopefully finding a cure one day.

I’m not a runner by any means, so this will definitely be a challenge for me. But it feels like a small thing to do compared to what so many people living with Parkinson’s face every day.

If you’re able to donate, I would really appreciate your support in aiding the amazing work of Parkinson’s UK. Thank you so much!

Thank you to my sponsors
