Hopefully you know me from my website www.homephysique.com but if you don't that's ok!

My Mother in Law has developed the incredibly rare terminal brain disease known as Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and I have found that typically awareness of this disease is pretty non-existent and that really it would be great if more people could help to raise money for much needed research as there is currently no cure for this condition.

--- 2016 UPDATE ---

I have entered the Hull half marathon but I also plan to try and keep up with the powerlifting side of things. It would be awesome to enter a powerlifting meet alongside running the half marathon as they are both counter productive to each other! Let's see how it goes, whatever I raise it is all for a good cause.

I will be carrying out fundraising events on my channel along with the permanent option to donate to this cause on my website. Also, as many people have found out over the years I often put a lot of my own time into helping others with their fat loss / training goals helping to address problems and provide solutions to any issues they may encounter. I have always done this for free to give back to the community, turning down offers of payment, so from now, if you must insist on giving me something (although I certainly do not expect it!!), give to this charity instead. 

Any help with sharing awareness and donations are greatly appreciated. 

What is Progressive Supranuclear Palsy?

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare brain disorder that causes serious and progressive problems with control of gait and balance, along with complex eye movement and thinking problems. 

The disease starts out slowly but progressively develops into a worse state. PSP affects the ability to control the eyes properly, often causing a hazy, blurred state along with greatly affecting the balance meaning that sufferers tend to have an increased risk of falls. It also affects the moods of the individual and can create a "distant" personality. PSP also can cause trouble with swallowing, meaning that sufferers of the disease can be at risk of choking and may need feeding assistance.
