I am taking on the challenge of the London Marathon 2025 for myself, colleagues and friends, to raise awareness and funds for Action for A-T, to help them find a cure or treatment for A-T.

Please support by donating as much or as little as you can for this fantastic charity and all they do.

Background:

Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T) is an extremely complex condition that affects a variety of different systems in the body. Research into A-T can also give insights into more common conditions like cancer, compromised immune system, lung conditions and health generally.

In the UK, research funding for A-T is extremely limited so Action for A-T was established in 2012 to increase investment in A-T research and raise awareness of the condition.

For many people living with this rare condition, sustainable, high quality medical research offers hope for the future. Hope that there will be something that will change the difficulties they face in every day life. Hope that the prognosis may be improved, and hope that increased interest in A-T will lead to greater understanding of not only this disease but others too.
