Aims2Cure finances research into finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis at leading institutions in the UK. In 2007 Aims2Cure established The Michele Elster Fund to help improve the lives of people with MS and alleviate the obstacles everyday living may present.

Story




In June, we are undertaking a trek across Romania for 5 days to raise much needed money for Aims2Cure, a Charity who fund research into finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis.

The Bucegi Mountains are rich in heathen mythological symbols, Piatra Craiului ‘The King’s Rock’ National Park is home to the Carpathian Large Carnivore Project (protecting wolves, lynx and bears) It is a challenging yet very rewarding expedition and at the same time, a trip back in time, to an area where tradition still guides people’s lives and nature is wild and walking to heights over 2400m above sea level. 

To tell you a little bit more about Aims2Cure – they are a registered charity, established in 1999 who finance research into finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis at The Institute of Neurology and The Institute of Cell and Molecular Science, both in London.  We are very passionate about the money we raise as our friends father was diagnosed with MS  over 25 years ago, and has the slow progressive form of this horrible disease.

In 2007 Aims2Cure set up The Michele Elster Foundation to help fund MS sufferers directly with their everyday lives.  The late Michele Elster was an MS sufferer who tragically lost her life to the disease in 2006.   To date, Aims2Cure have raised over £650k to try and eradicate one of the most common neurological diseases amongst young adults, currently affecting around 85,000 people in the UK.
