Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are taking part in the Worthing Half Marathon to raise money for the CGD society. 

Elliot’s story 

In October 2022, Elliot was admitted to hospital with a bone infection in his leg. After surgery it was discovered, he had a rare bacteria in his bone. This led to his diagnosis of Chronic Granulomatous Disorder - CGD.

CGD is a rare immune condition that affects an estimated 8 in a million people. Having CGD means that Elliot is unable to fight bacterial and fungal infections, due to a faulty immune system gene. He needs daily antibiotics to fight these infections. His only curative option is to have a bone marrow transplant. 

The CGD Society support families affected by CGD and have been helping us since the diagnosis back in October. 

Any donation will make a positive impact on the support received by families affected by CGD all over the world.

Thank you 🤍
