Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm trying to raise money for research into Parkinson's Disease in memory of my dad who died in 2006.

This is a horrible disease which left my dad virtually unable to speak, walk or control his movements during the last few months of his life while all the time his mind remained unaffected.  The more research that goes into it the better.

Any money you are able to spare would be so much appreciated.  Every little helps, so if you are able to give, please please do.

Many thanks

Catherine

£2 covers the cost of sending out a free copy of our DVD Being There to someone newly diagnosed with Parkinson's
£12 could enable an Information and Support Worker to give expert advice on benefits to a person with Parkinson's
£25 could pay for a helpline nurse to take calls for an hour
£150 could fund a Parkinson's nurse for a day
