Story

Hi all,

As some of you may or may not know, we are taking on the Great North Run this year!

For those of you who don’t know, we are running in support of a charity called Muscular Dystrophy UK as a young girl named Ella has inspired me to do so. Ella is a Manifesting Carrier of Duchenne muscular dystrophy which essentially means her muscles get weaker over time.

Cally works with Ellas Dad and along with Ellas Mum Clare, they have created a fund named #TeamElla (click the link to read more on this) for Ella to raise funds to help fund research into treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy and others living with the condition.

This is where you guys come in! Most people have never heard of the term ‘muscular dystrophy’ or know what it means. I would love to raise as much awareness and funds as possible for this charity to help change the lives of those who are affected.


Please spare what you can, whether it’s what you’d spend on that bottle of wine on the way home from work on a Friday, that meal deal at lunch time, or that take away on the weekend – every little bit really does help. 

Thankyou!
