Simon de Deney is raising money for Orchard
Story
Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page. I’m running the Cambridge Half Marathon on Sunday 8 March for a terrific charity, Orchard. It aims to help people with OCD.
OCD is a chronic, disabling condition which can blight people's lives and potential. Most people do respond to first line treatments but these help manage the condition rather than offering a complete cure. Relapse can also occur as roughly 20% of people do not respond to first line treatments.
New treatments need research. Right now, there is a terrible lack of good quality research initiatives exploring OCD. ORCHARD is a charity set up to try and rectify this and funds research into new treatment approaches for OCD.
Please give a little to help this really worthwhile cause. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
