Story

MS-UK is here to make a difference to anyone affected by multiple sclerosis (MS), that's around 130,000 people in the UK and 2.3 million worldwide. We empower people with MS to live healthier and happier lives by improving the understanding of the condition and providing support where it is needed most.

Both my mum and sister suffer from this horrific illness and over the years I have seen the improvement in care and support for those suffering, and their families and feel this is an awesome way to highlight the plight of those with MS and raise money to fund  research for a cure.

So this year on World MS Day, MS-UK are launching a connect 24 to connect people with gaming challenges and raise money. In light of this I plan to paint the contents of the Cursed City board game by Games Workshop in 24 hours and then I plan to auction the game (which is now out of production) and the painted models and donate the proceeds with my sponsorship.

Now there will be some preparation before the painting challenge and these will be upated and shared with you guys on here and my social media platforms, also I will be streaming the challenge from painting desk, so feel free to drop in for a natter, a drink and see how I am getting along.
