    Hello you absolute beautiful humans who are the most wonderful people. We cannot express enough gratitude to you all, for your support.

    We managed to run and walk to raise awareness for Parkinson’s NZ and check out the donation total received! We are taken back by the support and love from you all.

    We (kind of) trained, we got blisters, we had a lot of firsts in our run and walk group! We would do it all again to support and celebrate people diagnosed with Parkinson’s, in the hope that they never feel a burden on anyone.

    You have all contributed to this EPIC amount. So much love to you all x

    Thank you for your donation. This means so so much to us. I would love for the ongoing research that is happening for Parkinson’s, that they soon find a cure. It’s just a pesky disease that impacts people both physically and mentally, and of course the carers around them.

    Do you know that with all your collective efforts we raised nearly $5K! And that’s because of you!

    While this GiveaLittle page is closed now, it does not mean that we stop raising awareness for Parkinson’s. We will continue to support this cause in the hope that people feel they can talk about Parkinson’s in a comfortable way.

    It’s really sucks that Budge has been diagnosed, and we hope that it’s not the corticobasal degeneration (Parkinson’s Plus). Only time will tell. For now, he’s living his best life, stumbling more, but taking this all in his (wobbly) stride.

    If there is anything more that has been highlighted since the diagnosis, it is to enjoy moments with people, make time for people, and reach out to those that you haven’t spoken to in a while. You’ll never get that time back, and as cliche as it sounds, life really does pass us by far too soon.

    Much love to you all. X

    HI everyone! A massive thank you to all of you that have donated. We are all busy training for this run! Thank you so much, please know that your donation goes directly into Parkinson's NZ. I have a hope that with all the research, they will find a cure one day for this. If you like, we have started an IG page too. This is to share our journey and to cheer Budge along.
