London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

Dear friends,

After six weeks of training, I’m very happy to finally share that on April 12 I will be running the London Landmarks Half Marathon to raise funds for Parkinson’s UK.

Those of you who know me well will know that this is a cause that means a great deal to me and my family, and I feel incredibly privileged to be able to run in support of raising awareness for Parkinson’s disease.

In the UK alone, around 166,000 people are living with Parkinson’s, and someone new is diagnosed every 20 minutes. The condition is progressive and currently has no cure.

Parkinson’s is also the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world, making research, support services, and specialist care more important than ever.

Every donation will help fund vital research, specialist nurses, and support for people and families living with the condition. Any contribution, big or small, would mean a great deal.
