We believe that  Parkinson's Disease will be cured. Research into a cure for Parkinson's Disease is in its end-game phase. Parkinson's Disease will be consigned to the history books.  Research is expensive. Our objective is to raise funds to speed up that research.

It all started in Corsica
 
Having met for the first time in Corsica on a PDS trek, Bruce Lorimer, from Cambridge suggested to me that we cycle from Lands End to John O' Groats,. I agreed readily, but when he told me he was going to raise £10,000, I realised that I needed a new fund-raising idea.  I couldn't keep going back to the same friends and family time and time again.  I needed to spread the net.

Youngest Parkinson's Sufferer in UK

Joins End to End to End PD

 

Twenty-four year old John Crossley-Stanbury

thought  to  be the youngest Parkinson's    Disease sufferer in the Uk has signed up to join the Pedal for Parkinson's ride End to  End to End Parkinson's Disease. John jumped at the opportunity when he met ride organiser David Greaves at a Young Parkinson's  conference at Stratford  over the weekend.

"This is a wonderful opportunity for me to help pass the news to the people of Britain that anyone can get PD, the fit and healthy, rich and poor, the famous or the unknown, the old and the young.  But it doesn't have to be that way.  Research into a cure  is indicating that a cure will be found in the not too distant future.  We need your help to fund that research.  This ride will give lots of opportunities to invite the public to help us consign Parkinson's Disease to the history books."
