Manchester Marathon 2026

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page 💙

I’m taking part in my first ever Marathon - Manchester on 19th April 2025!! 

My dad suffers with Parkinson’s and it’s a horrible disease to watch a loved one go through. 

I am hoping to raise funds for Parkinson's UK which will provide much needed advice, support and information for people who are living with the condition. 

I have a page on Instagram @runwithsoaps that you can follow my journey on as well as some blog posts below 🥰👇

Parkinson’s 💙 🌷

Tuesday 9th Dec
Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition. This means that it causes problems in the brain and gets worse over time. Anyone can get Parkinson’s, young or old. Every hour, two more people are diagnosed. There are over 40 symptoms and everyone’s experience is different. And there’s no cure. Yet. With your help Parkinson’s UK can fund better care, drive research breakthroughs and one day find a cure.

Thank you to my sponsors
