A huge thank you to Jason who recently cycled from Taunton to Carmarthen - a journey of approximately 160 miles - raising more than £2,000 for Parkinson’s UK Cymru.
Jason’s mum, Maureen Thomas, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in her early fifties, and she sadly died last December at the age of 79. He says that every pedal stroke of the ride was for her.
He added: “Parkinson’s had a significant impact on my mum and our family. Watching her navigate this relentless condition for two decades showed me what true strength looks like, but it also showed me how devastating it can be. I hope the money I’ve raised will help others with Parkinson’s and contribute to research and finding a cure.” 💙

Diolch enfawr i Jason, a deithiodd ar feic yn ddiweddar o Taunton i Gaerfyrddin – taith o tua 160 milltir – gan godi dros £2,000 i Parkinson’s UK Cymru.
Cafodd mam Jason, Maureen Thomas, ddiagnosis o Parkinson's pan oedd yn ei pumdegau cynnar, ac yn anffodus bu farw fis Rhagfyr diwethaf yn 79 oed. Dywed Jason ei fod wedi gwneud pob cam o’r daith feicio er cof amdani.
Ychwanegodd: “Cafodd Parkinson's effaith sylweddol ar fy mam a’n teulu. Wrth ei gweld yn wynebu’r cyflwr di-baid hwn am ddau ddegawd, gwelais sut beth yw gwir gryfder, ond gwelais hefyd pa mor ddinistriol y gall fod. Rwy’n gobeithio y bydd yr a***n rwyf wedi’i godi yn helpu eraill sydd â Parkinson's ac yn cyfrannu at ymchwil a dod o hyd i wellhad.” 💙
