Congratulations to Bath Half Marathon team

8 March 2010

We would like to thank everyone who took part in the Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 7 March to raise vital funds for the Parkinson's Disease Society.Kevin Carter

Our 70 strong team of runners will raise around £25,000 towards our work to find a cure and improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson's. 

Kevin Carter, team member and an information and support worker (ISW) for the charity in the South West, said:

"This was a great opportunity to show that ISWs often go the extra mile to support people affected by Parkinson's. I hope the event has helped to raise awareness of the service we offer and the charity as a whole."

The dedication of our fundraisers really makes a difference to the work we do.

Paul Jackson-Clark, Fundraising Director

Paul Jackson-Clark, Fundraising Director at the charity, said:

“I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who ran in our team and to those who helped cheer our team on.

“We are totally dependent on voluntary donations, so it is the dedication of our fundraisers that really makes a difference to the work we do for people with Parkinson’s.”
