Kilimanjaro 31 · 6 August 2020

Established in 1984, we’ve been supporting people living with neurological conditions across Edinburgh, the Lothians, and beyond for over 40 years. At The Neuro Therapy Place, we’re proud to offer holistic care in a warm, welcoming space where everyone feels at home.

Story

Up until November 2019,  a band of eight mad friends 🌝 were training with me to climb Kilimanjaro to raise money for the MS Therapy Centre, Edinburgh. Unfortunately, due to a fall, the subsequent brain injuries acquired and then COVID-19, this is no longer possible. Kilimanjaro 31 is the alternative.

I'm a crazy middle aged woman with MS, Brainstem Encephalitis, and now an acquired brain injury from the recent fall, affecting travel, balance and my ability to walk. I plan to walk the 3.663 mile height of Kilimanjaro using a race runner (an assisted walking trike), every day from 7th August - 6th September 2020. It would be brilliant if you would be able to sponsor me and help me reach my goal of £3,663.00 for a great cause! 

The MS centre is a brilliant place where a wide range of people gather for group and individual therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, physiotherapy, massage, Reiki, hypnotherapy, pilates, yoga, and a great cup of tea and a natter. Their support for me over the last ten plus years has been bloody brilliant!! 👍  They are an amazing bunch of dedicated professionals and volunteers and the centre needs as much support as possible, especially during the coronavirus crisis.
