Story
On Sunday 16th June, we will be taking on the Forth Rail Bridge and abseiling 165ft to help fundraise for the Lauren Currie Twilight Foundation!
The LCTF was established in 2010 by the parents of Lauren Currie, who sadly passed away, aged just 15, due to Vasculitis which was only diagnosed in the 48 hours before her death.
Vasculitis is a group of conditions affecting the blood vessels, with several variants affecting different parts of the body. Some variants are fatal if undiagnosed - but diagnosis can be complex as many symptoms can also be stand-alone conditions (like arthritis, asthma, tiredness, joint pains, headaches). Connecting the dots is vital for diagnosis.
The charity is not government-funded and relies on donations and fundraising to provide patient support (support groups, counselling, respite and wellbeing courses); raise awareness of Vasculitis variants (GP awareness materials, public awareness); fund PhD research; provide education through webinars.
