Story

I will be participating in a charity boxing match on the 8th December, I have decided to do this, not only to keep me on the straight and narrow but to raise money for Metachromatic Leukodystrophy, a life limiting illness that has affected little Joshy and typically affecting 1 in 140,000 children. Whilst being friends with his parents, Lucy and Brad, I have watched the struggles themselves and Joshy have gone through. MLD takes over their bodies and all of the things they could once do and the milestones they reached, cruelly gets taken away from them. Josh has lost all of his mobility and a significant amount of his movement, he is fed via a feeding tube through the tummy and has lost the majority of his speech and other bodily functions.

Please help me raise as much as we can to support the MLD association uk. Not only to support josh and raise awareness of this terrible disease but to also support the other children in the UK who are either battling the disease, or have lost their lives.Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
