BUPA London 10,000 2012 · 27 May 2012 ·

Imagine being told your toddler you thought was healthy, but perhaps slow to progress, in fact had a rare and devastating disability that would leave them needing lifelong 24/7 care. Rett syndrome changes lives irrevocably. With your support Rett UK is there from the beginning. #ToKnowHerIsToLoveHer

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 27th May next year, I am putting on my running shoes with the other members of Team CDKL5 and taking part in the 2012 Bupa London 10K.

CDKL5 is a rare genetic disorder, also referred to as a "Rett-Like" disorder.  Children with this condition suffer many seizures daily, have severe developmental delays, severe reflux, most are non-mobile, and all are non-verbal.  CDKL5 UK was set up by a group of parents, who want to reach out and support others, as well as raise vital funds to aid research, and to spread awareness.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Every little helps and is greatly appreciated! Lets make a difference to these kids and their families.

Thank you x
