Tim and myself are completing the 3 peaks challenge on October 21st to support Oliver and his parents Nick and Irvana.

Oliver was born in 22nd May 2015 and is the youngest of 3 children.When he was almost 1, his parents noticed Oliver was not bearing any weight on his legs and whilst he was sitting he was unable to move out of position without assistance.

After a year of misdiagnosis Oliver was sadly diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy Type 2 in June 2017 only 2 weeks after his 2nd birthday.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic condition that makes the muscles weaker and causes problems with movement.
It's a serious condition that gets worse over time, but there are treatments to help manage the symptoms

In order to live life to the maximum Oliver requires various items of equipment including a specialist wheelchair and standing frame among others. These are not available on the NHS and the best wheelchair he could get costs up to £25,000!!

In addition, the Davies' family need to drastically adapt and extend their home to make it fully accessible for Oliver.
