Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

I am running the Plymouth Half Marathon on the 28th of May with my friend George who entered me as a Christmas present, I'm sure I'll forgive him one day!

 

The reason that I have chosen to run for the Migraine trust is due to my Girlfriend who has been suffering from them most of her life. I have seen the effect that it has on her life, it is severely debilitating, and often she can’t get out of bed for 2/3 days due to her being paralysed and unable to move or co-ordinate herself as well as having a blinding headache. It means that she is unable to work on these days and can mean leisure time is cut short.

Migraine is a condition of recurring headaches (headaches that happen again and again).The Migraine Trust is committed to supporting sufferers and their families by funding and promoting research, improving diagnosis and treatment, providing information and advice, and raising awareness of migraine as a significant public health problem.

 Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Migraine Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And an extra thank you to Kate Scurr at the Migraine trust for all her help and support.
