(No.1082059). </span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">AYME is dedicated to the emotional and practical support of children and young people with M.E. and their families.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Membership is free so AYME relies on fundraising events such as mine to keep its vital services running.</span>
<p><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">M.E. is a painful, disabling and isolating illness which affects an estimated 25,000 children and young people across the UK.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Symptoms include extreme pain and fatigue in the muscles to the point of collapse, weakened immune systems and severe cognitive problems.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>M.E. can leave children and young people wheelchair or even bed-bound for many years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many are unable to attend school and become isolated. AYME is their lifeline.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal;">If you would consider supporting the Great Northern run<span style="color: red;"> </span>for AYME.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would appreciate anything you are willing to give.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter, and I hope to hear from you soon.</span></p>
