Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi, I'm Maddison and in March 2019 I was diagnosed with Scoliosis, then after further investigation I was found to have limb discrepancies. Being a dancer this had a major impact on my life. Fast forward to five years later, five operations later, including limb reconstruction and latterly an anterior spinal fusion in January this year to straighten the curve in my spine and I now find myself in recovery mode. What's the best way to aid recovery - have a goal! Two years ago I said that it was my aim to be strong enough to climb the O2 Arena and now it is finally happening!!

I have so much to be grateful to Sheffield Children's Hospital for, I've gone from not being able to dance like everyone else to studying to be a dance teacher and living my life in the best possible way. Please, if you can, help me by sponsoring me to do the climb and help me raise funds for an incredible hospital.
