Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I am running the London Marathon on 22nd April 2012 in aid of Multiple Sclerosis.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition which affects around 100,000 people in the UK.</p> <p>Most people are diagnosed between the ages of 20-40, but it can affect younger and older people too.</p> <p>Almost twice as many women have MS than men and once diagnosed stays for life. There are treatments and specialists who can help manage the symptoms.</p> <p>I am hoping to raise in excess of &pound;2000 which will go a long way to supporting sufferers.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
