Thank you for coming to visit my page.
I am running for Haemochromatosis to raise awareness of this genetic blood disorder.
I have two close people in my life that are affected by this disorder, and I have listened to the challenges that they have had to face from the initial diagnosis to the constant treatment required to minimise the symptoms.
Haemochromatosis is an inherited condition where iron levels in the body slowly builds up over many years. The increase in iron levels accumulates in tissues and organs affecting their normal functionality.
By raising awareness of Haemochromatosis, I hope to help people in the future in their initial diagnosis, as this disorder still remains a challenge to be recognised early.
There is no cure for this disorder at present, however by recognising the disorder early, helps to maintain the symptoms as well as prevent major organs from being affected.
Thanks for your support with my London Marathon JustGiving challenge!
