Parkinson’s UK ‘March for a Cure’

Every hour, someone in the UK is told they have Parkinson’s. Parkinson’s UK offer friendship, support, expert information and advice. They also fund ground-breaking research into Parkinson’s and are leading the way to find a cure.

Annapurna Giving supports Parkinson’s UK with support throughout the year and 5 of our consultants ran the London Marathon on behalf of Parkinson’s in 2018 also.

Dave Clark (Sky Sports presenter) is a sufferer of Parkinson’s and as his Parkinson’s symptoms inevitably worsen, walking is becoming increasingly difficult. Dave decided to walk the Dalesway. 85 miles, over 6 days from his hometown of Ilkley in West Yorkshire to the Lake District.

Charlie Appleyard (Director & Co-Founder at Annapurna) joined Dave for the final part of the trip and help Dave finish his phenomenal achievement.

If you’d like to support Dave and his #marchforacure, please donate through JustGiving.
