Walking marathon in May for SMA, 1 May 2021

Story

My nephew, Jack, is rarely not smiling. He's a remarkable, intelligent and resilient 5 year old boy who lives life to the full and absolutely loves it. He was also diagnosed with Type 2 SMA when he was just under two years old. 

Charities have taken a huge hit during the pandemic, and as the world slowly opens up again, I'd like to help SMA UK raise more funds. This money is so important - funds for research into new treatments is vital. Spinraza, for example, has made a huge difference to Jack's life, and new treatments could make a huge difference to the lives of other children who will be diagnosed with SMA. 

I know times are difficult for a lot of people, but if you could see your way to sparing a fiver (pretty much the cost of one pint here in the South East!), I'd be eternally grateful.
