My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Huntington's Disease isn't particularly well known, but its effects are long-term and devastating for sufferers and their families. It is inherited, and it has no cure. Yet. For the past 15 years I've watched a fellow member of the Thames skiffing community deteriorate with it, and so this seems an appropriate charity to support with this rowing challenge!

So please dig deep and donate now. Our fundraising target represents £2 for every mile we're rowing.

For more about our row and how to follow us, visit www.AtlanticDouble.net
