Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I’m taking part in the Great North Run on 7 September 2025 to raise vital funds for Parkinson's UK. I’m dusting off my half marathon shoes and getting back on the trails for my Dad. Parkinson’s is taking so much of him, I want to raise money for research and care.
Please help by sponsoring me whatever you can. All the money raised will go to Parkinson’s UK nurses, to provide much-needed advice, support and information for people who are living with the condition.
Thank you to my sponsors
