Story
On May 8th 2021 the three of us will be taking on the 3 peaks challenge for The Pituitary Foundation (please note Justgiving has defaulted the event date as 24th January which was the date we created the page. That is NOT the date of the challenge).
The Pituitary Foundation is an organisation dedicated to providing information and support to newly diagnosed patients and patients living with pituitary disorders.
The MRC LMS project team Director, Stuart Yates was diagnosed with Hypopituitarism at the end of 2019. The Pituitary Foundation has been a fantastic support to Stuart and his family in coming to terms with his new diagnosis. It was, therefore, an easy decision for Stuart and his Walter Lilly project colleagues to commit to raising £10,000 during the course of 2020 for this fantastic charity
Collectively over £4,000 has already been raised and now the 3 of us want to boost the fundraising by taking on this challenge.
The Pituitary Foundation is a small charity and income has been decimated as a result of Covid-19. They receive NO GOVERNMENT funding and are totally reliant on the fundraising efforts of the general public, efforts that have obviously dried up over the past year. If you can donate then it would be hugely appreciated by us, by Walter Lilly and absolutely massively appreciated by The Pituitary Foundation.
Evert penny makes a vital difference to their work.
