Cure Parkinson’s fundraiser beats the Banker on Deal or No Deal
Supporter Craig appeared on the latest series of the iconic TV game show and raised valuable awareness for Cure Parkinson’s during his episode.
Craig (who featured on episode 12 of the latest series) was diagnosed with Parkinson’s three years ago when he was just 39. Whilst on the show, he spoke with host Stephen Mulhern about the impact his diagnosis has had on his life and what a cure would mean to him.
During the episode Craig also talked about Cure Parkinson’s and the work we do in our search for a cure, and how he was hoping to donate a portion of his winnings to us.
After some tense moments and with only five boxes left to choose from, including both the £10 and £100,000 prizes, Craig accepted the Banker’s offer and walked away with £18,700!
Craig first got involved with Cure Parkinson’s back in 2023 when he took part in our April Dog Walking Challenge. Although he didn’t own a dog he was determined to support our cause, so borrowed a neighbour’s dog for the fundraising challenge to help him reach his goal of walking 100km across the month of April.
Cure Parkinson’s would like to thank Craig for raising valuable awareness of the charity on Deal or No Deal and for his amazing fundraising efforts over the past few years. Thank you, Craig!
