Nerve Tumours UK provides support and information, as well as campaigns and raises awareness on behalf of over 26,500 people in the UK who have NF, the group name for Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), NF2-related-Schwannomatosis (NF2) and Schwannomatosis (SWN).

Story

Between the 1st and 25th of December my aim is to run 100k dressed as Santa! I also have a few elves out and about throughout Mull helping me raise awareness by donning their festive outfits and braving the weather to show their support.

As well as raising funds I would also like to raise awareness. Mia was born with Neurofibromatoses (NF1 for short). Yup, I hadn’t heard of it either until Mia was diagnosed a few years ago. Mia just gets on with it but there’s no denying it has a massive effect on her life, it can sometimes be really difficult.

Very little is know about NF1, even with most health professionals. Nerve Tumour UK provide crucial support to families living with NF1. Without their support, life with NF1 would be even harder.

Nerve Tumour UK are campaigning at the moment to raise funds for one more specialist nurse in the UK. I hope to raise funds to help this campaign #onemorenurse

Feel free to grab your Santa/Elf suit and go for a run this December! Thank you for your support!
