Story
I am running 26.2 miles in the 2024 TCS London Marathon to support the MS Society.MS is an unpredictable and incurable condition that affects people's nervous systems. It can attack suddenly or progress steadily, bringing a range of symptoms which can include sight loss, incontinence, fatigue and mobility problems. No-one with MS can be sure when or how it will affect them next. It is a disease that has impacted my family in a significant way, as it took our beloved grandmother/mum from us. I hope to honour her name and memory by making a difference in the lives of others living with MS. These people are true warriors. While running a marathon may be significant personal challenge for me,it pales in comparison to the immense strength and courage displayed by those living and fighting through with this disease daily.
The MS Society fund vital research into the causes of MS and possible treatments. They provide a helpline service, answering the calls of those looking for advice and support. They believe that together, we are strong enough to stop MS.
By donating to the MS Society, you can help to support
research efforts to find a cure for this disease, as well as provide
much-needed support to those living with MS and their families. Every donation,
no matter how small, can make a significant impact in the lives of those affected
by this disease.
I am grateful for all the support provided and I thank you for your generosity. Together, we can make a difference in
the fight against MS.
