Hi there
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. This September I'll be running 13 miles (a half marathon!) along the streets of Newcastle with the aim of raising money for the charity Parkinson's UK.
Parkinson's is a severely debilitating condition which affects one in every 500 people. The most common symptoms are tremors, rigidity, and slowness of movement. My Grandpa is one such person who battles with Parkinsons every day. Sadly, we do not yet know how people develop the condition and there is currently no cure.
However, Parkinson's UK fund groundbreaking research into the disease, and provide invaluable friendship and support for Parkinson's sufferers. Your donation will be massive help for those suffering with Parkinson's, so please be generous :)
Many thanks
Dan
