Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for Parkinson's UK. 💙🌷.
This is going to be a huge challenge considering I can barely run 5km without stopping at the moment but myself & some friends are going to be taking on London Parks Half Marathon in October this year!
Please support me in raising funds for Parkinson's UK. Which all helps to fund breakthroughs for those living with the disease, people like my Dad. He has been fighting with the disease for over 15 years which makes me even more grateful to every donation towards the Parkinson's charity which allows them to provide much appreciated advice, suppprt and information for those living with, and the families of. It also funds vital research in the hope of one day finding a cure!
Every hour, two people in the UK are told they have Parkinson’s. Your donation will help fund the right research into the most promising treatments, getting closer to a cure every day. Thank you so much for your support💙
Here’s an idea of what the money can do:
£28 TO HELP STAY FIT: We can fund a device to help track physical activity so we can learn more about the benefits of keeping active with Parkinson's.
£45 FOR A RESEARCHER: We can fund a clinical researcher for 3 hours, so we can test groundbreaking new treatments for Parkinson's.
£145 FOR THE HELPLINE: We can pay for 5 helpline advisers for an hour, to provide vital support to people with Parkinson’s, their families, friends and carers.
£770 FOR AN MRI SCAN: We can fund an MRI brain scan for an hour, to help our researchers learn more about Parkinson’s and the brain.
£1,055 FOR MEDS ON TIME: We can fund 50 hours of support and campaigning materials to help your local hospital deliver medication on time to people with Parkinson’s.
Together we will beat Parkinson's.
Thank you so much for your support - 💙🌷
