Hi All,

As I mentioned to most of you I am running London marathon on 23 April 2023.I started running in 2019 with amazing club called Sole sisters and this is my first ever marathon and I have worked really hard since Jan and I will be doing memory miles, remembering all my friends, families and colleagues who have supported me throughout the run. The Brightwell is local charity who I would like to sponsor and my employee does pound for pound scheme up to the amount of £500 so any donation is welcome.

There are an estimated 4.7 million people in the UK living with a neurological condition, in our region alone, in 2018, it was thought that just over 10,000 people were living with a long term chronic neurological condition.A diagnosis of a neurological condition is often a traumatic moment, and The Brightwell offers a safe space to terms with the news and work out a way to move forward. The therapies we offer are designed to address the many different symptoms of a neurological condition and our aim is to help people live a full, meaningful and independent life.Our core treatments are Neuro Physiotherapy & Oxygen Therapy. Neuro Physio is only provided by the NHS for 6 weeks post diagnosis but at The Brightwell we offer this care life-long at a subsidised rate for members. Our Oxygen Therapy is not available outside of MS Therapy Centres, apart from a handful of very expensive private clinics, therefore we are unique in this provision in our area.
