On the 24th July I am taking part in the Glasgow 5k Big Fun Run to help raise money for the MS Society Scotland to help them in their efforts to find a cure.
About MS:
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a condition of the central nervous system . It is the most common disabling neurological disease among young adults and affects around 100,000 people in the UK. Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage many symptoms well. Although its cause is not known and a cure has yet to be identified, research continues into all aspects of the condition.MS is the result of damage to myelin – the protective sheath surrounding nerve fibres of the central nervous system – which interferes with messages between the brain and the body.
More than 10,000 people have MS in Scotland, with one in 500 people affected. This is the highest rate in the world.
