Send help (and donations) I’m running a marathon
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. On 19th April 2026 I’ll be attempting to run the Manchester Marathon to raise money for Parkinson’s UK.
My dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s last year and thankfully, he’s doing well ❤️ but it’s fair to say I signed up for this on a whim, with zero thought about how far 26.2 miles actually is, how hard it would be, or how much training it would involve. Fast forward five months and with the training in full swing and just two months to go, it’s all feeling very real, so I thought I’d better start the fundraising too.
Parkinson’s UK does incredible work supporting people living with the condition and their families. By sponsoring my run, you’ll be helping to fund vital research, improve treatments, support the Parkinson’s community, and hopefully one day help find a cure 🙏🏻
Anything you can spare will go a long way to help this great charity, and me, when I’m about 13 miles in and starting to question my life choices 😜
Thank you so much for your support, I’ll let you know how it goes, assuming I survive 😆🩵💛
Thank you to my sponsors
