We are running and walking the length of the UK. We all met virtually while we were taking part in the MS trust development programme which we were lucky to be part of. It is so important that healthcare professionals receive training to offer the best service and support to people with MS but furthermore we feel priveleged for the opportunity to take part in professional development and would like to give something back. Covid has had a massive impact on the MS services we have been able to provide and of course an impact on the fundraising that the MS Trust relies on. We have an opportunity to move forward and develop our services for people with MS and so we would be so grateful for your donation to this worthwhile cause. 

We thought up this challenge as way of supporting eachother and motivating eachother. Exercise and fresh air is so important for our mental health and general well-being. I am hoping it will keep us healthy and happy as we work in our roles and carry out our assignment! We aim to complete our journey by our submission date of June 11th and fingers crossed we not only cross the finishing line we will also pass our assignment!! 

The team is made up of professionals from nursing, pharmacy, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and even a beautiful donkey called Ruby who has accompanied her teammates while litter picking as we add up the miles! 

An MS diagnosis can be devastating. You may feel lost, alone and uncertain of the future. The MS Trust are here for the 100 people who get diagnosed with MS each week. We are here on day one, and every day after. By supporting the MS Trust you are helping ensure the 110,000 people living with MS in the UK today are not facing MS alone. Without our amazing fundraisers we would be unable to continue the work we do. Thank you for making a difference.
