Lynn's husband, Chris, was diagnosed with Inclusion Body Myositis over 10 years ago. This has a significant and debilitating effect on his day to day life. Despite this Chris continues to be a great Dad! and still contributes to community life in Kenley. 

Myositis affects thousands of people in the UK, young and old. It can be life threatening, and almost always disabling. However, it is still relatively rare and does not attract the funding that more common illnesses do. Team Allsorts (believe it or not it took us ages to come up with that name!) will be walking 50km from Putney Bridge to Runnymede to help raise money and awareness for Myositis UK. We have set ourselves a time target of "during daylight". This is a huge challenge for us and we have been pounding the pavements of Kenley and Purley in preparation. Bizarrely we never run out of things to talk about!

We really would appreciate your support for Myositis UK as it is the only UK Charity that concentrates on this crippling condition, providing support for sufferers, and funding for research. The Group has already donated many thousands of pounds for research projects, but this only scratches the surface of the problem. We need to do more – there is still no cure, and in many cases no treatment either.

By donating to the group you can be assured that your money will go where it is needed; this is a small charity which spends only a minimum on administration. Your money goes to where it is needed the most - research and support.
