I've joined the fight against Parkinson's
Hi everyone!
Firstly, thanks for coming to check out my fundraising page. I'm
raising money & awareness for Young Onset Parkinson's Disease (YOPD)
because, like a lot of the population, until recently I was unaware of the affects
Parkinson's can have on younger people. One of my longest friends back home
(and my original opening batting partner!) has been diagnosed with YOPD and
it's now one of my goals to help however I can.
If you're in a position to do so, please help me by making a tax
deductible donation. I know my goal is a big one, but at $2,050 it reflects the
fact that around 20% of people living with Parkinson's will experience symptoms
before they are 50 years old, some much younger. I'll be donating $1 for every
run I make & dismissal I'm a part of over the 2022/23 cricket season, and
will be doing some extra fundraising in the new year too!
Fight Parkinson’s is a leading source of specialised health
information, advice, and services for those in the Parkinson's community.
Through research, education, and support, they strive to improve the lives of
people living with Parkinson’s or Atypical Parkinson’s (PSP, MSA and CBS).
The more people that know about Parkinson's, the greater their
impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and
family.
Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
Teagan :) x
