Charlotte's and Tom's Shakespeare Half Marathon
Fundraising for PCD Support UK
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As most of you know, Tom and myself work in a primary school. A 10 year old girl, in Tom's class has a condition called Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). This condition is extremely rare whereby it is caused by abnormal cilia. Cilia are microscopic hair-like structures that beat in the airway clearing mucus and debris. People with PCD, cilia are either static or do not beat in a coordinated fashion (dyskinesia) meaning the body unable to clear secretions. This can affect the lungs, nose, sinuses, ears and fertility.
Tom and I would appreciate it so much if you could make a donation however big or little as we are running this Half Marathon to help and try raise awareness of her condition for her family.
Thank you for reading.
