We are raising money for Rare Disease UK.

1 in 17 people, or almost 6% of the population, will be affected by a rare disease at some point in their lives. This equates to approximately 3.5 million people in the UK and 30 million people across Europe.

Rare Disease UK work with health departments across the UK to implement the UK strategy for rare diseases to ensure that patients and families living with rare conditions have equitable access to high quality services, treatment and support.

We want to raise money for Rare Disease UK as Sarah has both Addison’s Disease and Avascular Necrosis and we all also have family and friends who suffer with other rare diseases. These diseases are so rare most people have never heard of them and there is no cure. We feel that by completing this walk and raising money for this charity, we are also raising awareness of rare diseases.
