We're taking steps for Addison's Awareness

Tracey Bennett is raising money for Addison's Disease Self-Help Group

Steps for Addison's Awareness · 1 February 2026 to 28 February 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

To celebrate Rare Disease Day 2026, we’re inviting you to take part in a special fundraising challenge to raise awareness for Addison’s disease and adrenal insufficiency: the ‘Steps for Addison’s Awareness’ Challenge!

Story

Well, Adam's latest attention seeking project is getting diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency (a form of acquired Addison's type disease) This is as a result of the radiotherapy he had 10 years ago damaging his pituitary.

It's early days but the Addison's self help group - Addisonsdisease.org.uk - has already been invaluable in its information and resources. We therefore decided to take part in the Steps for Addison's Awareness promotion during February this year to raise some funds.

Our aim to each walk 128 miles in the 28 days of February (in total, not each day, we're not superhuman) and we would be very grateful for any support you can offer, whether that's a donation or joining us one one of our weekend walks - now that's he got the Prednisolone a pub may be involved!
