<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;our JustGiving page.</p> <p>We (Charlotte T, Charlotte K&nbsp;and Tash) have decided to run the Jersey Half Marathon in&nbsp;November in aid of local charity 'Hope for John'. &nbsp;All funds raised are going directly to aid research into Lafora Body Condition - the severest form of human epilepsy which affects one in a million people. &nbsp;The charity has been set up by the family of John Sharp who was diagnosed with the disease in 2008. &nbsp;</p> <p>The rarity of the disease means that the on-going research into finding a cure for Lafora currently receives no government funding - so John and others like him really need your help to raise enough money to keep the research going (Scientists are confident a cure will be found).&nbsp;</p> <p>Please give generously.</p> <p>Thank you! :)</p> <p>Love Tash, Charlotte T and Charlotte&nbsp;K&nbsp;xxx</p>
