I will be running the Amsterdam marathon on the 15th of October to raise money for FND Action. FND is a neurological disorder that my sister, Rachel suffers from.

Functional Neurological Disorder is a brain network disorder that can encompass a diverse range of neurological symptoms including limb weakness, paralysis, seizures, walking difficulties, spasms, twitching, sensory issues and more. Anyone of any age can receive the diagnosis. For many symptoms are severe and disabling, and life changing for all.

FND Action was founded by a group of people who had been diagnosed themselves, and who wanted to come together to provide help and support to others. The charity and its volunteers dedicate their time to supporting people diagnosed. We work with medical professionals, charities and organisations alike, to raise much-needed awareness to help improve accessible treatment. The advocacy work of FND Action is leading the way to better awareness and care.
