We support Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff families to help them cope with a diagnosis

Story

A beautiful little girl within our nursery has been diagnosed with a cruel and terminal illness called Tay-Sachs.

This is a life limiting illness and most children will die by the age of 4. The effects of this disease on the child and the families living with it are devastating......

Working with Amelie and her family has been a privilege and honour. Every day we work with Amelie really makes everyone understand how precious life is and I can truly say that this amazing child and her family have touched our hearts forever.

So.............Amelie is the reason I am doing this insane run!!! Please sponsor me so that the CATS foundation, which was set up by Amelies parents, can continue to raise funds for research into this disease but also to help other families affected by Tay-Sachs.

P.S this is a onetime only event.................so get in with your sponsorship while you can....GO TEAM AMELIE!!
