Story

My Dad passed away last year, but he was already suffering the impact of a rare condition called Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM) which was slowly wasting away his muscles. He was slowing down, struggling to walk, to care for Mum, to pick up and hold his grandchildren.

I'm raising funds to hopefully give others suffering anything similar a chance to have a more normal/longer life, and the support they need. 

Thanks for any donation, if it helps you can imagine me sweating, swearing, and suffering up a very long hill (I will stop for cake though!).
