Story

Our sparkling Fiona, B's god daughter, has been battling CIDP for some time now.  She celebrated her 30 birthday in February and has her wedding and new home to look forward to in 2022.  

Meg and Bernie completed c35 miles over 7 days from Sunday 11 April till Saturday 17 April 2021.  We  raised £2001 in the process,  thanks to the very generous support of family and friends, near and far - those who know Fiona and those who have never met her.  We are very grateful to all who made this donation happen.  Thank you.

Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune condition affecting the peripheral nervous system, usually leading to temporary or long-term paralysis. Around 80% of those with GBS will make a good recovery, but between 5-10% of people will not survive and the other 10-15% may be left with severe mobility or dexterity issues. GAIN helps people understand and manage both acute and chronic variants of the syndrome, raises awareness, and promotes clinical and non-clinical research into these conditions.
