I am taking part in the Cure Parkinson's RUN LOCAL, the charity’s first ever ‘Festival of Running’. Social distancing has decimated the charity’s 2020 schedule, including the Royal Parks Half and London Marathon, resulting in the loss of £2 million from its curative research funding. I believe it is funding, not science, which is delaying the cure:  the charity and the Parkinson’s community need us to step up ... and step out ... please join us and RUN LOCAL!
