Great North Run 2024


I’m taking part in the Great North Run 2024 and fundraising for Parkinson’s UK in memory of my late uncle (Jeff).  Jeff was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease way back in 2000 and for the most part he continued to live an unencumbered life with it however it did take it’s toll in the final 3 years or so until we sadly lost him in September 2023.  He and his wife Rosemary received a great deal of support from Parkinson’s UK in varying forms but most importantly, friendship.  They made a great many friends and Rosemary continues to volunteer with her local group and spend time with these wonderful people.  


Your mum, son or friend. Anyone can get Parkinson’s, young or old. Every hour, two more people are diagnosed. And there’s no cure. Yet.

That’s why I’m taking part in Great North Run 2024 and fundraising for Parkinson’s UK.

With your help we can fund better care, drive research breakthroughs and one day find a cure.


Thank you!
