The AT Society is a charity incredibly close to my heart, and that of my family. I'm really proud to be taking this challenge on in memory of my beautiful brother and sister, Gregory and Caroline.

The charity supports children and adults with ataxia telangiectasia (known as AT), and funds research to find a cure. AT is a rare genetic disorder. In typical cases, a child with AT may appear wobbly or unsteady on their feet, which eventually deteriorates to the point they will rely on a wheelchair by the age of about 10. The average life expectancy is currently just 26.

The AT Society is a lifeline to those with AT and their families, offering a beacon of hope through incredibly tough times. It also funds research, which we hope will lead to an eventual cure for AT.
