Vitality London 10000 2018 · 28 May 2018 ·

We're here to bridge the gap between needing Mental Health support due to a devastating Duchenne diagnosis and accessing the NHS services families facing Duchenne need. Therapy empowers families to navigate the complexities of DMD with a greater sense of understanding and emotional well-being.

Story

After many days of hard training, running and strict diet I have finally made a brave step to run my first ever large mass participation event in the most iconic sights of London.

I have decided to run for Harrison's fund in order to support my friends Klara and Nick Taussig and their family and at the same time to raise awareness of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy which is a stinker of a disease. 

It's the most common fatal genetic disorder to affect children around the world. If you've got it, you can't produce dystrophin, a protein you need to build up your muscles. As a result, every muscle in the body deteriorates. At the moment there is no cure.

Please do take time to visit my JustGiving page and help me to help others. 

My goal is to raise £1,000 for £10km run.
