At just 2 years old Great Ormond Street were the hospital to diagnose me with Arthritis after visiting several other hospitals who weren't able to diagnose my condition. Since then I attended Great Ormond Street very regularly all through my childhood until I turned 18, and I'll never be able to thank the staff enough for their endless care and support. Although I was battling the condition at a young age and had to give up the thing I loved most, football, I have still been able to live a fairly normal life and I'm certain things would be different if it wasn't thanks to GOSH.

For the last few years my shoulder had been playing up and I was advised by surgeons to go have it replaced, so I had that procedure last year and I am still recovering from that today. Although this may make this challenge a lot more difficult, I'm still determined to show Great Ormond Street how thankful I am for all that they do for every child that comes through their doors.

I would really appreciate any donations small or large to help such a fantastic charity. I have been given a goal of £250 from GOSH, but I'd love to smash that through the roof!
