Hello,
So we decided to undertake the Three Peaks Challenge to raise
money for the Multiple Sclerosis society to help increase our awareness
of MS as a serious disease as well as do our part to fund much needed
research into its causes and treatment. The Three Peaks Challenge is to scale Mount Snowden, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis (the three highest peaks in Wales, England and Scotland) in under 24hours.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a
neurological condition of the central nervous system which affects
around 100,000 people in the UK.
MS is sometimes very hard to
diagnose and can initially be mistaken for other less severe issues. No
one knows what causes it and it affects people differently .
Treatment
in the UK can be hard to access and only helps to manage it. Multiple
sclerosis stays with you for life, there is currently no cure for it but
research is fast improving its treatment.
Last year someone very close to us was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.
This is our way of doing what we can.
Please help us,
Rebecca and Jean-Sebastien
