Story

It's approaching that time of year again ... and I've decided to visit my abandoned toenails in the hills of The Lake District - and whilst I'm there I may as well do the 100km Ultramarathon (yep the same one as last year ... NON STOP, No Sleep!!)

Times are very hard for many of us, but if you can spare a bob or two I will be eternally grateful ... and I won't send you pics of my wrecked feet :)

I’ve been a supporter of the amazing work of Reverse Rett since I met Ciara several years ago. My wonderful wife Jane was caring for Ciara, providing a few hours of respite for her truly amazing family. As I often do, I tagged along … then “Kiki” smiled at me and that was that, I was hooked on doing anything I could to help fund research into a cure for Rett Syndrome!!

Devastatingly, Ciara passed away in October 2023 at the age of 14. To continue her legacy I’m raising money so that this cruel condition can be cured. It’s heartbreaking to know that Ciara and her family will not benefit from any future treatments or a cure, but so many other girls and their families will.

Thank You xxxxx
