Medical research is so so hard. And Parkinson's is one of the toughest nuts to crack. Cure Parkinson's has got a really strong sense of mission and make great progress. A great organisation. Highly recommend this piece by Rory Cellan-Jones open.substack.com/pub/rorycellan…
Thank you to Rory Cellan-Jones for this insightful interview with our CEO Will Cook. They discuss the history at the heart of charity, the latest advancements in our research work, and why our drive to find a cure is stronger than ever. #CureParkinsons rorycellanjones.substack.com/p/will-cooks-m…
20 years ago, 10 close friends staggered 26 miles together, raising funds for a cause that became Cure Parkinson's. Tom Isaacs was one: he’d walked 4000 miles to warm up. Story at justgiving.com/fundraising/wi…. Back in 2002-3, our cause needed awareness; now it needs specific funding
