As many of you already know, I have been a fundraiser for The Cure Parkinsons Trust for a  number of years. This year, I was hoping to take part in The London Marathon, running 26 miles on my 26th anniversary year at Deloitte but sadly, due to a family illness, I was unable to complete the training. But wanting to still mark the milestone in some way, I have another plan to complete 26 miles..... I will be running the Tonbridge Half Marathon on 6th October and, after seven sleeps, running the Royal Parks Half Marathon on 13th October!

Since an initial abseil down a Deloitte building in 2009, there's been a zip wire across the Oval, several BUPA 10k's and a few half marathons, a tandem skydive and a Jurassic Coast challenge. And thanks to everyone's generosity, more than £25,000 has been raised over those years. This makes such a huge difference to the work the charity can do to try to find a cure for this disease, and is only possible because of your support. Thank you for visiting my page. JustGiving sends your donation straight to The Cure Parkinsons Trust so that they can put your generosity to good use.
