Running in aid of PSPA

Whilst my husband, Chris, lost his fight with PSP at the end of December 2019, our middle grandson James Weston will be running as part of the PSPA team in the London Marathon on 21st March 2024.It would be wonderful if James can get over his target. Any donations will go towards research into this devastating disease which robbed us of the most amazing husband, father and grandfather.

We hope and pray that one day research will find a cure for PSP and CBD.

Hey everyone! πŸ‘‹ Just a quick reminder that I’m gearing up to run the London Marathon in support of PSPA (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Association). PSPA is a cause close to my heart, and I’m passionate about raising awareness and funds to support individuals and families affected by this condition.

Every step I take in training and on race day is dedicated to those battling PSP, and your support means the world to me. Together, we can make a real difference!

If you’d like to contribute to this important cause, please consider donating using the link below. Every donation, big or small, helps immensely.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement! Let’s do this together! πŸ™ŒπŸ’ͺ #LondonMarathon #PSPA #RunningForACause #CharityRun #SupportPSPA

Dear Anne, I've now read Chris's story on the link that James had shared. You're incredibly strong to be able to tell the story of a whole life of what sounds like a wonderful man, husband, father and grandfather. The love from your long marriage shines through so beautifully πŸ’œTake care of yourself too πŸ«‚
