Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Almost a year ago Daniel was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, a muscle wasting disease which is very rare and means that he will have progressive severe physical limitations for his whole life.

In September myself, Ruth and Rebecca are going to attempt to run a half marathon to raise funds which will go directly towards research into Daniel’s specific type of MD (there are over 70).

Ruth and Rebecca are my lovely neighbours and fellow mummies and we have been training hard for September, mostly by drinking wine and talking about our running strategies! It’s fair to say it’s going to be a challenge for all of us!

Please help us on our way to our target, we want to raise as much as we can for MDUK, it’s hard to find the words to describe the difference they could make with positive research, treatments or even a cure for this condition. Because muscles matter.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity
