This year, I have decided to take on a challenge that not only pushes my physical limits but also aims to raise awareness and funds for MS research by participating in the Edinburgh Half Marathon. Multiple Sclerosis is a cause close to my heart, and I am determined to make a positive change.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition that affects your brain and spinal cord. Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life.

More than 130,000 people in the UK have MS. This means around 1 in every 500 people in the UK lives with MS, and each week over 130 people are diagnosed with MS. People are most likely to find out they have MS in their thirties, forties and fifties. But the first signs of MS often start years earlier.

Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a significant impact on the lives of those affected by this condition.

Thank you for your support and any donations!
