Story


Super excited to win a place in the Celebrity Superhero Tri alongside our Team Captain @adamhillscomedy‏! Do come and cheer us on!! superheroseries.co.uk @superherotri

What is Superhero Series?

It’s big. It’s bold. It’s gutsy. It’s the UK’s one and only disability sports series for the Everyday Superhero! The idea is simple. To create fun, full-throttle challenges where people with disabilities call the shots and don’t have to worry about cut-off times or equipment restrictions.

I am 4 years old with a rare type of Muscular Dystrophy called L-CMD. It is progressive muscle wasting disease which will get worse as I get older and most likely affect my cardiac and respiratory system. I am cycling 3km on my specially adapted bike to show everyone and myself that we can beat this disease with everyone's support and a lot of determination.

It will be difficult for me to cycle the whole 3km as my lower body doesn't have the muscle strength so I have enlisted my super sidekick 'mummy' to be on hand to push me when needed.

I am super excited to have been selected to take part in such a unique event for people with disabilities but even more excited to be teaming up with Celebrity Adam Hills the comedian. I wonder if he will laugh at my sheep jokes!!!
