Sophie and Gill's Blackpool to Fleetwood walk · 6 January 2017

ME Research UK exists solely to fund high quality biomedical studies into the causes and treatment of ME/CFS. This illness affects approximately 250,000 people in the UK but is neither well understood nor, in many cases, properly recognised. We fund highly regarded, peer-reviewed research worldwide.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.


We are walking from Starr Gate tram stop to Fleetwood Ferry and hope that you can support us and donate to ME research. 

Sophie was diagnosed with ME 2 years ago and it has changed our lives.  It means Sophie has not been able to attend school for 12 months and is studying at home to complete her few GCSE's.

She has good and bad days and she is not just tired.  She suffers from extreme fatigue and brain fog and somedays just cannot function.  She also suffers from anxiety and together these make daily life a struggle.

Sophie will be joining me on the walk and if possible would like to complete it.  If not she will continue with Dad in the car and mum will continue the walk.... Katie may join us at some point!
