Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Here is a link to an interview with BBC South East Today about the difficulties in accessing the medication I need.

So that's £20. 

January is Thyroid Awareness month. So I have decided to donate £2 for every run I complete in January (usually 2 or 3 runs per week) to The Thyroid Trust. This relatively new charity works exceptionally hard on behalf of Thyroid patients who often struggle to get accurate diagnosis and treatment for their condition. The Thyroid Trust provides valuable information helping to raise awareness for patients and clinicians. Throughout the year, many interesting events  are held with expert speakers.

Patients, the majority of them women, often struggle to be heard.

The Trust enables thyroid patients to have a voice which is invaluable because often, diagnoses are based on outdated guidance and where there have been many recent advances in knowledge about thyroid conditions. 

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.
