Iʼve raised £1,945 to For Amy's electric wheelchair
- Edinburgh, UK
- Funded on Wednesday, 30th May 2018
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Alex and I are running the Edinburgh 5k race in May to raise funds for our friend Amy who suffered a spinal injury in January 2017.
She desperately needs an electric wheel chair to give her more mobility and freedom to get out and about independantly.
The money I raise will be put towards an electric wheelchair and anything left over will be used to help with other disability aids for her.

6 years agoHello all I can confirm that Alex ran the Edinburgh 5 km in under 40 minutes on Saturday and is still recovering from the punishing uphill course. I also swam 1.275 km yesterday (51 laps of the pool) in penance for not completing the run under doctors orders due to my dodgy ankle. Thanks everyone from Amy, Alex and I for your help and support but most importantly your donations. Its much appreciated and without your help Amy couldn't have been able to move to a new specially adapted flat which she need a motorised wheel chair to access.

6 years agoToday is the run! Unfortunately my physio suggests I don’t run today due to the flare up of my old Achilles’ tendon issue. She suggests I attempt a swim-a-thon (i believe the equivalent compared with a triathlon is 35 lengths) instead which I intend to do on Monday. Sorry folks!! Alex will still be running today though, so we will post up his progress! Thank you for all your sponsorship and kind good wishes! From Alex, Amy and Suzi
