Story

<p><span style="color: #1b1b1b;">Thanks for visiting my page.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #1b1b1b;">OK, I admit it, I've been bitten by the Marathon bug! After running London in 2010, I'm back for more and 2012 being the Olympics year seems as good a year as any!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #1b1b1b;">So, why BRPS?<br>Imagine slowly and progressively losing your sight? <br>Missing out on your children or grandchildren growing up?<br>Losing your independence? <br><br>These are the realities faced by Retinitis sufferers and this condition is not as rare as many people think, 1 in every 3-4000 people suffer from this condition. It starts as night blindness but eventually leads to total loss of sight.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #1b1b1b;">Thanks to all who have donated so far, to all the clients who have popped into our office at Sherr Technologies (<a href="http://www.sherr.co.uk">www.sherr.co.uk</a>) and been relieved of their change for our charity tin.</span></p>
