PG Automotive raising funds for Parkinson’s UK

Date: Friday 03 September 2021

Andy and Mel Lees at PG Automotive, along with some close friends, Steff and Dean Asher, are taking on the Thames Bridges Trek on 11th September to raise much-needed funds for a charity close to their hearts, Parkinson’s UK.

The 25km walk will see the team walk over 16 bridges from Putney to Southwark and is set to be no easy feat.

Andy Lees, managing director at PG Automotive, said:

“Parkinson’s disease is something that has affected our close family and of some of our dearest friends’ relatives in a very dramatic way. In fact, my wife Mel’s Uncle struggles every day with it.
“It’s progressive and there’s no cure currently, but we want to do our bit to help raise some funds so hopefully one day there will be, at the very least, significant treatment to prolong the effects so other families aren’t affected like ours and so many others are.
“Even the smallest amount matters and if you do contribute it will make all the aches, pains and blisters worthwhile. Thank you for your support!”

Those wishing to donate and show their support for Andy, Mel, Steff and Dean can do so here.
