Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Elliot introduced me to rugby when I first met him and I never used to understand the sport. However, once he finally explained the rules about 10x to me I got there!
We loved watching Rob Burrows as he was a brilliant sportsman and so good at the game but also how much he has continued to support organisations since retiring. Being small I could also relate to how he got through many tackles haha!
In 2018 we were lucky enough to meet the man himself, Rob is such a friendly guy and took the time to talk to us.
Seeing how MND has not only affected Robs life but many others around the world is absolutely heartbreaking.
Elliot has been brought up around mountains and Ben Nevis is the only one he hasn't climbed. Me on the other hand; I've never really climbed a hill, let a mountain so when Elliot said he's up for it I think it was very much to his surprise that I said about joining in too!
So here we are, with less than 11 months to train for climbing a huge mountain with my little 5 ft 1 body and Elliots just a little bit taller body!
It's definitely going to be a challenge for both of us in October 2022!
The donations will be split between Life For A Kid which helps under 16 children with SEN and also The Rob Burrows Centre for MND.
