The OC marathon · 2 May 2010

10,500 people in the UK have ataxia which is a progressive neurological condition that disrupts the messages sent from our brains to our muscles that are used to move, speak, listen and see. Ataxia UK funds research into finding treatments and a cure and provide support until they are found.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page. I am running the OC marathon to raise awareness and money for research into rare forms of ataxia. I believe that we all have a responsibility to change the world around us for the better and this is one of my ways of doing it. My mum has a rare form of ataxia and has struggled with the condition throughout my childhood and adolescence. I know how it feels to be close to someone suffering and not be able to help. Through fund raising for this charity i am trying to do what i can to help and I pray God goes the extra mile for all those suffering with this condition. Thank you all for your support and time it is much appreciated!
