Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Myself and my brother Adrian are doing all we can to raise funds not just for Adrian and Wendy's son Aaron but for all other sufferers of Duchennes. Children are often in a wheelchair at the age of 10 and by their teenage years many are totally paralysed and suffer respiratory, heart and spinal problems. Without treatment most of these young men die by their late teens or early 20's. There is currently no cure or active treatment but there is HOPE in clinical trials. All monies raised goes directly to Action Duchennes to fund research. Over the last two years, myself and Adrian have run the Cardiff Half Marathon, The London Marathon, The Bupa Great North Run and the New York Marathon. This year in July we are swimming the channel along with a close friend Christine. It is going to be the toughest challenge we have ever had to face.
