Story

This year Charlie Henderson Russell (Harrow) and I (Henry Middleditch, Oundle) have committed ourselves to the London Marathon. This somewhat mad decision arose after we decided that we wanted to do something for MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and the Marathon naturally springs to mind as being a hallmark of physical and mental challenge. MS has specific significance to us both, especially Charlie, whose mother unfortunately has the disease. In case you don’t know, MS is a wasting disease in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system and has no absolute cure although there is medication and care to delay the development of the illness and increase comfort for those who have it. It is this care and treatment that we wish to support as well as the research into curing the disease completely.

Thank you for sparing some time to read this page and if you feel able to make any donation; it goes without saying that we will be deeply grateful. As you can see our target is £10, 000.
 
Thanks, Henry & Charlie xx
