Story

Six years ago I launched the 'Move a Mile for Muscles' campaign with MD UK and have since become the very proud ambassador of the movement. I told my story of diagnosis and about living with the condition and that spread like wild fire on social media.

In 2012 I walked 1 mile solitary mile and raised £1000, since then we have gained a huge team of support, produced a star studded promotional film called 'Muscles Matter' took part in many events and have now raised over £250,000 for vital world class research.

Our team is a group of selfless people willing to go above and beyond for others, the nicest people you'll ever meet too!
