James Taylor is raising money for Nystagmus Network

Carrots Nightwalk · 21 September 2012

Nystagmus means involuntary movements of the eye. It impairs vision, affecting focus and depth perception. At least 1 in 1,000 babies are born with nystagmus. There is currently no cure. The Nystagmus Network is a UK registered charity which provides support, raises awareness and funds research.

Story

Hey - on Friday 21st September, I will be walking 15 miles through central London at night, to raise money for the Nystagmus Network. The walk is to raise money for a £15,000 research grant for nystagmus. Nystagmus is an eye condition that affects 1 in 1,000 people.

As you will know, I was born with nystagmus and am extremely passionate about the cause. It affects individuals in all kinds of ways, not just those that have it, but their family, friends and work colleagues. There is a vast amount of research that could be done, but so little money to fund it.

To find out more about nystagmus, check out my website, the Nystagmus Network website or just ask me (if I've not already gone on about it enough)!

Thanks very much, James.
