Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

To help in raising money fo the Multiple Sceloris society I am running the London Marathon on April 25th. This is absolutely the last time I will ask anyone to sponsor me for a marathon...my knees can't take it any more!

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common disabling neurological condition affecting young adults. Around 100,000 people in the UK have MS.

MS is the result of damage to myelin - a protective sheath surrounding nerve fibres of the central nervous system.

When myelin is damaged, this interferes with messages between the brain and other parts of the body.

For some people, MS is characterised by periods of relapse and remission while for others it has a progressive pattern. For everyone, it makes life unpredictable.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now, many thanks and wish me luck, I hope to complete the marathon in around 4 hours.

 

Thanks again and all donations large or small are much appreciated.
