Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
December the 4th 2017 was the day my best mate unexpectedly passed away, my dad he was the greatest man I have ever known a true gentleman. His cause of death wasn’t through Parkinson’s but I know that he would have wanted me to donate to this charity as he was a great believer that one day they would find a cure for Parkinson’s. He was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at the age of 47 and passed away the 4th December 2017 making him 53 years old throughout those years he remained positive and it’s his positive attitude that has made me want to do this marathon in remembrance of my dad. I would do anything in the world to have you back here but I know when I cross that finish line you’ll have been with me every step of the way! Life isn’t fair and you didn’t deserve to go and nobody knows how much I need you right now but I’m gonna do this marathon for you, Mum and the rest of the family I’ll get through it no matter what it takes you always said to me if you you put your mind to something and stick to it it you could accomplish great things. Love you dad forever and always x

Anyone can get Parkinson’s. It gets worse over time and there’s no cure. Yet.
Funding research into the most promising treatments, we’re getting closer to a cure.
Until then, we're improving life for people with Parkinson’s, and the people in their lives.
Together we'll find a cure.
