Story

Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune condition affecting the peripheral nervous system, usually leading to temporary or long-term paralysis. Around 80% of those with GBS will make a good recovery, but between 5-10% of people will not survive and the other 10-15% may be left with severe mobility or dexterity issues. 
GAIN helps people understand and manage both acute and chronic variants of the syndrome, raises awareness, and promotes clinical and non-clinical research into these conditions. For more info visit www.gaincharity.org.uk

We witnessed how devastating Guillain-Barré is when we lost our beloved Dad and husband to this awful illness in April 2020.

My aim is to raise as much awareness as possible, and all money raised will go to GAIN Charity - www.gaincharity.org.uk

I will be supporting GAIN's #GAINmomentum awareness campaign by posting facts and information regularly throughout the month, as well as completing 5K A DAY - whether that be walking, cycling, running or crawling!!
