Story

Hello there! Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

I'm very excited to be running the Cardiff Half Marathon 2017, but I need your help to raise as much money as possible for my chosen charity Psoriasis Association UK. I chose this charity because it's the most personal one for me, I've battled Psoriasis for about 10 years now, it comes and goes, but when it flares up it can be hell. 

Psoriasis comes in all shapes and sizes, some people may have little patches, while others have their entire body covered in it, it can be itchy, inflamed, flaky and sore. Unfortunately, there is no cure, but there are treatments available, but the important thing for me is spreading awareness and having a support network for people who suffer with this soul destroying disease.

I'm very fortunate to have amazing family and friends that support me everyday of my life, I'm someone who is extremely positive, but there are times when I find it difficult to deal with my Psoriasis as it can make you insecure about your appearance and can really develop stress, anxiety & depression. That is why I have chosen to raise money for Psoriasis UK, to not only improve the treatments that are available, but to also have a network for all the individuals that suffer with Psoriasis, to talk about their experiences with one another and to remind each that we are not alone.

Please donate as much as you can, whatever the amount I will be extremely grateful. 

Thank you for reading my story
