The Color Run, Manchester · 5 July 2015

Over 150,000 of us in the UK have MS. It’s unpredictable and different for everyone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We’re the MS Society. We understand what life’s like with MS. We're here for you through the highs, lows and everything in between. Together, we are strong enough to stop MS.

Story

The Color Run is going to be our first running event! It is a fun 5k & we want to run the whole track & raise money for the MS society.

As a lot of you know, my dad has suffered from MS all his life & is now in a wheelchair full time. Myself & Emma included have seen the struggles he goes through every day physically & mentally. MS attacks the nervous system & the brain. It can leave people with limited or no use of limbs, exhausted, depressed & there can be alot of complications.... But I have met a lot of people with MS through my dad. They are all kind, inspiring people. My dad goes out his way for everyone & cares about everyone before himself. We want to raise money for people like my dad, so that they can have treatments & theories, equipment installed in their homes to make life a little easier, even to help in the search for a cure... I've seen the money put into practice & I see a difficult life made easier.

We've put the target to £500 but would love to raise more. Another personal aim for myself (Abby) is that I'm hoping to persuade my dad to do a wheelchair 5K with me! If he sees how many people care, what a difference it could make, I'm sure he can be persuaded. This is something I bet he thought he could never do again.

So we ask kindly for you to donate. We are working our butts off in preparation & you could help someone amazing like my dad!!! 

Thanks everyone. Abby & Emma xx
