This week is Parkinson's Awareness week. And Parkinson's Uk is a cause which I raise funds for whenever I can.
My grandfather, for as long as I can remember, had Parkinson's. He always had the shakes. He found it difficult to talk and drink and be 'in control' of himself. And, because he had Parkinson's it meant that dementia also caught up with him too.
I ran the London marathon in 2010 (something which was a lifetime ambition of mine) and raised money for the charity. Now, four years down the line I want to raise some more money for them.
In my etsy shop I have a number of items but the one that I think is most apt is the felt hearts...
So, for every felt heart that I sell the proceeds will go to Parkinson's uk. Here is a link for the charity and the great work they do...http://www.parkinsons.org.uk
So please give a little to this wonderful cause and I will post how much I raise on here in a fortnights time...

What a lovely way to raise money for Parkinson's UK, Helen. I hope lots of people buy them!
