Raising money for

UNIQUE (Rare Chromosome Disorder Support Group)

Charity Registration No. 1110661

Unique provides information and support to individuals affected by rare chromosome disorders, their families and the medical and other professionals working with them. Rare chromosome disorders are lifelong conditions, often causing severe physical and learning disabilities and complex health issues. They affect at least 1 in 200 live-born babies. Most will be dependent on their carers for the duration of their lives, many unable to walk, feed themselves or communicate their needs. The disorders remain very poorly understood and Unique is a place for parents and carers to turn to for help and advice. We help them come to terms with their child’s diagnosis by providing information on hundreds of specific disorders, sensitive support through our Listening Ear service and by linking them with other families living with similar disorders. We also work to raise awareness and disseminate information among the medical and many other professionals involved, aiming to ensure those affected receive the care and support they need in their own communities.

My story

YAY! I did it!

I recorded a time of 8hrs and 50 mins for the full 47 mile challenge. A big thank you to everyone who sponsored me.

PENNINE BRIDLEWAY MOUNTAIN BIKE CHALLENGE

Sunday 14th September 2008

47miles with over 6000ft of ascent taking approximately 10-12hrs.

I'm doing this mountain biking challenge to raise money for 'Unique' who provide support to children with Rare Chromosome Disorders and their families. Our daughter, Lucy was diagnosed with PKS (Pallister Killian Syndrome) and Unique have been very supportive towards us so I would like to help raise money to assist Unique in supporting other young children and their families.

The bike ride is 47miles in total, taking in all kinds of terrain. Pics and map are below....

Thanks in advance,

Gary.
