Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

Despite my hatred of running, I have been persuaded into taking part in a half marathon to raise funding for the Batten Disease Family Association. Batten disease is a rare neurodegenerative disease that causes profound disability in children and young adults. It is terminal and there currently is no cure.

Any money you give goes towards supporting those affected by Batten disease and their families.
