Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Back in 2023 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and it has had a considerable impact on life in one way or another.

Whilst coming to terms with the changes, I learned about the Grampian MS Therapy Centre in Dyce, Aberdeen which provides therapies including Oxygen Therapy, Physiotherapy and Reflexology to people with MS. As well as helping people with MS, the Oxygen Therapy is used for other conditions including cancer, fibromyalgia and ME to name only a few. The centre is funded entirely by voluntary donations and fundraising efforts.

Being active and outdoors has always been part of my life but fatigue and weakness in my left leg has meant that I haven't been able to walk very far in recent times. With the support of my amazing family, physiotherapy and treatments at the centre, I am starting to feel stronger and think about hills again! I have climbed Bennachie many, many times with family and friends in years past, but his time it will be more of a challenge. Although it's only 518m, I feel very lucky to be able to try to do this as many people with MS are not so fortunate.

If you’re able to spare five minutes and make a small donation to support my challenge, I would be hugely grateful. Every contribution will help support this amazing centre and the people who rely on it.

Thank you so much for your support.
