WALK, RUN OR CYCLE FOR PARKINSON’S!
Join our Parkinson’s Fundraising Team by walking, running or cycling to raise money for vital Parkinson’s services.
COVID-19 and strict social distancing means that we have not been able to gather in person for our walks, runs or cycle events. However, we are still determined to keep our services going and we must raise funds to support them.
Get involved this World Parkinson’s Day by setting your own walking, running or cycling challenge and raise money for Parkinson’s Care and Support UK. Your event can take place on one particular day, for example on World Parkinson’s Day or it can span across Parkinson’s Awareness Week or even the whole month of April.

How do I track my progress?
Once you set your own target in miles or km, you can virtually track your progress using Strava, MapMyFitness or Fitbit and watch as you edge closer to your target and beyond ! This will motivate you and encourage your supporters to sponsor you. If you link your Strava to your Justgiving fundraising page, your supports can see when you have completed your challenge.
Why we need you
All of the money raised will help fund our vital services such as our Parkinson’s Mental Health Support Hub, Respite Care, Visiting Care, Exercise, Neurological Physiotherapy, Training, Information and so much more. We rely entirely on the generosity of the public to fund our services- all of which are FREE.
We look forward to seeing how many miles this amazing community can accumulate in our fight against Parkinson’s!
