Pounding the Pavement for Parkinson's!!
Story
LET'S MAKE SURE IT IS FOR THOSE LIVING WITH PARKINSON'S!!
Friends, loved ones and colleagues - and anyone who is passionate about this cause and wants to support me on this crazy undertaking!!
I am taking part in Australia's most stunning Marathon - The Great Ocean Road Marathon!
I have decided to make a real difference by aiming to raise as much money as possible for charity. I will be sweating it out along the iconic Great Ocean Road with stunning views of the Southern Ocean.
Please help me help those in need by supporting me through this challenge and making a generous donation. I have chosen to run for an incredble organisation, dedicated to finding a cure for Parkinson's. My dear grandfather, Tom Sault, and an equally dear friend and inspiration, Kate Stone, are living with this frustrating condition and I am determined to help find a cure!
Every little bit helps so please donate now by pressing donate. Please also share the link with friends and colleagues who are passionate about the cause, and would like to provide a donation.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generous support - I promise I'll train hard and make it across the finish line!! :)
Love love love!

Shake It Up Australia Foundation
Shake It Up Australia has a clear mission: To find the cure for Parkinson’s
There are an estimated 100,000 Australians living with Parkinson’s with another 38 diagnosed every day. 20% of those diagnosed are under 50 years old. With your help, we can change this!
Shake It Up has partnered with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to fund the world’s best research in Australia targeted at finding better treatments and ultimately a cure.
100% OF YOUR DONATION GOES DIRECTLY TO RESEARCH. THAT’S RIGHT 100%! Our founding directors cover all general expenses of the Foundation ensuring every cent of your donation makes a real difference in the quest to find a cure for Parkinson’s.
About Shake It Up
Shake It Up Australia Foundation together with our partner at The Michael J. Fox Foundation are the largest non-government funder of Parkinson's research across multiple institutes in Australia. Founded in 2011 we have funded over $11.5M in research targeted at finding better treatments and ultimately the cure.
The Foundation was established by Clyde Campbell, a father of three and business owner who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2009 at the age of 44.
Clyde set out to find out as much as he could about the disease and determine what he could do in a practical sense to assist. His search led him to the Michael J Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research (MJFF) in the United States and the remarkable work they do to fund medical research targeted at finding better treatments on the path to a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
The approach MJFF takes to assessing, funding and project managing the world’s best research all over the globe eliminates redundancy, ensures efficiency and unites the global community in the quest to find a cure.
Clyde realised that funding Parkinson’s research was the best thing that he could do to help himself, his family and the 100,000 other Australians living with the disease. With that clear in his mind, Clyde founded Shake It Up Australia Foundation (SIUAF) to give other Australians the opportunity to join his quest.
