Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Huntington's disease was identified in my family 16 years ago.  It has impacted my sister and my late brother. There are around 1,100 people in Scotland with HD and because of the genetic risk, around 4,000 to 6,000 people are at risk of inheriting the disease.  For the last few years we have done a fundraising walk at Erskine in aid of SHA who do so much to support families like mine. .  This year is the 10th Walk at Erskine. so we would like to make it extra special!

Please join us on 11 September 2021 at 11 am .  The Walk was designed to suit people with HD so we walk for as long as we feel able from the Riverside Walk car park on Kilpatrick Drive to the Bridge and back again. Let's hope we get better weather than last year!

We hope you will feel able to sponsor us as this small charity provides much needed help and advice to people across Scotland.
