Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

My mum fell ill from this awful illness in May 1993 when I was still in primary school. I've seen how this illness can tear a person apart and turn their whole life upside down. This illness doesn't just effect the person but also people around them. With no funding from the government and a lack of awareness in the general public I wish to not only raise funds but also awareness. 

I have seen my mum go from a been a healthy 31 year old woman, running around looking after 3 children and working full time to being wheelchair bound and in constant pain every single day. It not only causes awful pain but also attacks the nerves causing many other issues for many of the sufferers.  This includes digestive problems, cognitive issues together with taking away the patients independence.

So please dig deep and donate now.
