I'm running the Great North Run on 10th September 🏃‍♀️to raise funds for Fragile X Charity.  This charity is very close to my heart as my nephew Colt has this condition. Colt is one of the most loving, quick whitted, funny, happiest wee boys I know.. but sometimes the normal day to day things we do without even thinking about it like dressing, showering, brushing our teeth and even just communicating with us can be really hard for wee Colty and at times he gets really stressed out about these things.  

Charities like this one help to improve the lives of those affected by Fragile X by providing information and continued support to families.  Working together with those affected, the Society supports an inclusive community of people who understand the specific needs of Fragile X. I've gotten loads of info from this charity for our family on how to best help Colt in his day to day life and activities, how to understand his condition more so we can help him manage it better in order for him to be less stressed and upset and more of a happy boy 💙

They aren't a big or well known charity and therefore rely on donations to be able to continue to provide and develop support for people living with Fragile X. If you can make any donation at all, however big or small, this makes a real difference!

Thanks so much, Soraya & Colt💙
