Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I'm taking part in Pedal Wye Valley for Parkinson’s UK this September and would appreciate your support!
Recently one of my closest friends and sailing parter Brian was diagnosed with Parkinson's. He wanted to raise money for future research and so we decided we would take part in the Wye Valley cycle challenge. Brian will be riding his E-Mountain Bike as he suffered a serious heart attack in 2018 but has thankfully recovered to still be able to lead a full and active life. I will be riding my manual hardtailed mountain bike in a supporting role and probably acting as mechanic for the team. We will also be joined by a few other friends and family on road bikes so I will have my work cut out keeping up with the pace of the group.
Please help by sponsoring us, all money raised will go to Parkinson’s UK's work supportting their UK wide physical activity and exercise programmes with the aim of helping people with Parkinson's get active and stay active.
