Hi Everyone,Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I'V FINISHED, BLISTERS ALL OVER MY FEET BUT WELL WORTH IT HAD A GREAT TIME WITH MUM AND DAD THEY WERE VERY SUPPORTIVE, LOTS OF INTERESTED AND FRIENDLY PEOPLE ALONG THE WAY, PLANNING ON WHAT I'M GOING TO DO NEXT YEAR MAYBE WALK THE OTHER PART OF THE CANAL WE DIDN'T DO!!!!!!!!!!! 

I am walking the Grand Union Canal form Milton Keynes to London on 22nd April with support from Dad(Andy) & Mum(June),John can't walk now due to work commintments, but i know he will be thinking of me along the route.We will be walking every day  and staying at various places along the way over a period of 9 days it is approx 75 miles.Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

An update, as a lot of you know i have just got back from Bath ,where i was very lucky to get a place on the AS course at the Royal National Hospital For Rheumatic Diseases, This 2 week live in course is the only one in the world, so it was great to go and have such specialist treatment, I am very postive and are very much looking forward to my walk for NASS, I meet some lovely people on the course I haven't laugh so much in ages they inspired me to be postive and to laugh instead of cry ,when the tough get going, People with AS get TOUGH, WE WILL NOT LET IT BEAT US .


  As many of you know I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis in March 2007, I feel driven to want to do something towards my charity and support them, and not feel that the condition will beat me and let other AS friends know we are not alone.


Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: National Ankylosing Spondylitis Society will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support Emma xxoo
