THE CARDOZO 3 PEAK CHALLENGE

3 Peaks Challenge · 27 April 2007

10,500 people in the UK have ataxia which is a progressive neurological condition that disrupts the messages sent from our brains to our muscles that are used to move, speak, listen and see. Ataxia UK funds research into finding treatments and a cure and provide support until they are found.

Story

We are undertaking the great challenge of climbing the highest Three Peaks in Great Britain in under 24 hours. It is going to be a tough and grueling event in which we will have to be at our fittest in order to make it. It will of course be fun as well!?!

The money we raise will be going to an extremely worthwhile charity - Ataxia UK. Three of my sisters children have recently been diagnosed with Friedriech’s Ataxia, a rare disorder which affects about 2,000 people in the UK. This progressive genetic condition starts in mid childhood and could put them in wheelchairs in their teens and severely shorten their life expectancy.  It is already beginning to change their lives. So as you can see this charity is extremely important to us. 

All contributions will be greatly appreciated and the money we do raise between all of us will have a significant effect on the research for a cure of which there is none at present, so please please if you can, sponsor us now!

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you so much for all your support.

P.s. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Ataxia UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
