My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

This is my fourth Great North Run and the fifth for Donna.  The whole running thing for me started by stupidly agreeing after a few drinks to run the Great North Run in 2006.  The bug has caught on and the thought of watching on TV and not being part of the event is unthinkable. 

This year we have decided to raise money again for ADDER as my mam has dystonia.  Research funded by the charity may in the future have some beneficial affect for her and others including maybe myself as the condition can be inherited.  There is no current cure for this condition and the main treatment involves having botox injections in the affected area, which my mam has approximately every 2-3 months.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Action For Dystonia, Diagnosis, Epidemiology And Research gets your money faster and 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 ADDER and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
