My wife was diagnosed over 15 years ago with RRMS and has gone through numerous treatments, from Tysabri to Ocrevus. The MS trust have always been there from day one of diagnosis 15 years ago and are still there throughout all relapses.

I have done numerous charity rugby matches over the years raising money for different charities and to mark the 15 year anniversary of my wife’s diagnosis of MS we decided the great north run was a great opportunity to give back to the work the MS Trust do and raise awareness of their work.

This will be the first half marathon I have ever done and I am proud to do it for my wife and MS Trust.

The MS trust has been vital over the last 15 years being there for my wife, and raising money will help them continue to be there for those that are just being diagnosed.

Please give any donations that you can.

Thank you
