Story

My wife Jean, despite having become severely disabled and paralyzed with MSA (Multiple System Atrophy), chose to fly down the 660m Zip wire (Video)  over the top of the Eden Project biomes "Superman" style to raise awareness of her chosen charity, the "MSA Trust". Much like cancer, MSA can strike anyone without warning; unlike cancer, there is currently no treatment, prevention or cure. MSA limits life to typically less than 10 years. Please donate to enable the MSA Trust to help find a way to defeat this evil, relentless disease. Please share.

For carrying the story, thanks to:
Video of Jean going down zip,
Eden Project Article, Eden Project (Facebook), MSA Trust (Facebook),
Falmouth Packet, Cornish Times, Cornwall Life, Pirate FM,
and Cornish Guardian (6/7/16p26), Falmouth West Briton (7/7/16 p2&3). BBC Radio Cornwall interviews: ask if interested, may be available.

A special thanks to Hangloose and the Eden Project team who made this flight possible through their positivity, encouragement and drive towards enabling anybody of any age or ability to participate in activities. They have donated their efforts to the cause.

Thanks to the Eden Project, and Kate and Robin for the pictures.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.

£20 provides packs to help support three families of those with MSA. £100 provides a venue for a support meeting for 20 families.

Many thanks
