I have been lucky enough to be given a place to run the Virgin London Marathon 2015 in April with Parkinson's UK.

The reason I decided to apply for a place with the charity is down to my Dad. He has lived with Parkinson's for over 10 years now and has always hoped that with better research a cure maybe found for the condition or just better treatments. Parkinson's UK fund groundbreaking research into the condition and also offers support for those affected and their families. www.parkinsons.org.uk/content/what-we-do

I need to raise £1900 to run with Parkinson's UK and need all the help I can get in reaching that target. Even the smallest amount will help me in reaching that target if you could spare it.

Thank you.
