Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
When our sister was diagnosed with MS in 2014, her world changed. Most of the family had not heard of MS and the impact it can have on someone’s life. Through grit, determination and fantastic advancements in the medical field she has shown us not only how strong she is and a true example to the family, but also how science has a major part to play in fighting MS.
We are so grateful for the support she has received on her journey since diagnosis and would now like to help the MS Society continue their great work by raising money and awareness for this cause. On 9th June 2019, the four of us (myself, Dali, Taran & Harjeev) will be participating in the Two Castles Run and would appreciate any donation towards supporting a cause close to our hearts.
The funds raised will also help the work the Asian MS are set out to do. Asian MS are a national support group of the MS Society, providing support and information to people affected by MS in the Asian community. When Harveel was diagnosed, we realised the lack of awareness and education amongst our community and so it's vital that a chronic illness such as MS has a voice and is recognised so that those diagnosed get the right support. No longer should chronic illnesses be a taboo subject.
Bearing in mind none of us have run more than 5km before, this 10km course will be quite a challenge! However we are more than up for the task and have already been on a few (short) practice runs. We will update this page with progress pics for your amusement.
