Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 19th July, Miles and I (along with some other crazy friends) will be embarking on an E'tape. Cycling with 14,500 men and 500 women on a Tour De France Mountain stage. 140KM and 4 mountain passes totalling 4000 metres of climbing.

Please donate generously..... Parkinsons UK is a fantastic organisation that needs all the funds they can gain. Every hour someone is diagnosed with PD. 1 in 5 people have PD. We need a cure and at the very least, patients need all the support that's possible in the meantime.

My Grandad had PD at a time where very little could be done except for taking high levels of Dopamine and sitting in a chair. Thankfully this has changed with many alternative therapies and approaches available to manage the progression of Parkinsons. 

As a Pilates teacher, I'm qualified to work with Parkinsons clients. My clients inspire me with their determination to challenge this progressive condition on a daily basis. My challenge only lasts one day, I'd like to raise as much money as possible - Please help! 

£25 helps to run an education session in a hospital ward

£75 enables a half day Parkinsons led clinic in the community

£150 is enough to fund a nurse for a day

£1000 could fund a cutting edge project for a week

Lets go for £1000!
