Story

Hi!

I think I must be crazy to take up this challenge! After Daddy lost his ability to go hill walking I decided I would take every opportunity to do what I love in the great outdoors, in my case running. This seems like the perfect challenge and tribute.

MSA is a rare disease that currently has no cure. Treatment is also in an experimental stage. Daddy was passionate about contributing to research in the field throughout his illness, and through fundraising I wish to continue to build on what he was able to contribute.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. Thank you!
