Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Christopher Maltby and I was born with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy which means that the part of my brain that sends the messages to my legs to tell them how to work is damaged. This means that my leg muscles are always contracted causing spasticity which is really uncomfortable and quite painful at times.

I am unable to walk properly or dress myself and I fall over a lot because I can't balance.

My family and friends are trying to raise £58,000 to take me to America to see a specialist who can perform an operation to cure the spasticity and give me the chance of a normal life free from pain and dependency on others.

So please dig deep and donate now.
