There are 14.7million people – that’s more than one in six – in the UK living with a neurological condition. Here at the country's leading neurological centre, we’re passionate about supporting the hospital to help improve the lives of patients through treatment and research.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

About me:  I redefine the word "unfit".  I haven't run more than 1 mile since 2006 when a mile took me 13 minutes and I have done no training.  However here is a picture of me looking vaguely active (with my trainers on anyway) which is a start!

About the National Hospital Development Foundation:  The National Hospital Development Foundation (NHDF) is the charity dedicated to raising funds for The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery which, together with the Institute of Neurology, is a worldwide leader in the research and treatment of brain disorders. These include brain and spinal cancer, dementia, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, stroke and head injuries.  The Development Foundation raises substantial funds for the crucial projects at the Hospital, enabling it to retain its position as the leading centre for neurology and neurosurgery.

To add a personal note, I have been both an inpatient and an outpatient at The National Hospital a number of times over the last seven years.  So it's great for me to have a chance to give something back and I hope you'll support me!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: National Hospital Development Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
