Hello all, I am running the Brighton Marathon on September 12th in aid of the Multiple Sclerosis Society.
This cause is particularly close to my heart as my mum has been living with MS for over 15 years, along with over 130,000 other people in the U.K. currently.
Multiple sclerosis is a condition that affects your brain and spinal cord. In MS, the coating that protects your nerves (myelin) is damaged. This causes a range of symptoms like blurred vision and problems with how we move, think and feel.
Researchers believe by 2025 they can slow down or halt progression of the disease for all individuals with MS.
