I am running for ME because it is often misunderstood. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E) is a neurological illness and has varying degrees of severity. It is a horribly disabling illness which affects people's lives and sufferers often need support from family and carers to manage their simple day to day living - which many of us take for granted. Many severe ME sufferers are wheelchair-bound, house-bound or bed-bound.
I am running for ME because a friend of mine, Luke, suffers from it and I have seen how this terrible illness affects him and his family. Every single penny raised will help bring awareness and help fund the necessary research.
If you wish to help, you can do so here. It will be very much appreciated, by me of course and by the whole ME community!! Or come and say hi on 22 May 2016 at Regent's Park, London :)
Lots of love
