June 2023 is Cavernoma Awareness Month and this year we're doing something particularly special. We're climbing Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, to help raise awareness about cavernoma and also to raise funds for Cavernoma Alliance UK.
A cavernoma is a common but often unheard of condition caused by a cluster of abnormal blood vessels in the brain or spine. Cavernoma Alliance UK supports people affected by cavernoma. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for those affected through education, support and research.
One of my great friend Jen's daughter Valentina and her husband both have genetic cavernoma and Valentina had to have one removed in 2021 at the young age of 7! In suppee we want to help raise awareness and funds for a cause close to our heart & brain 😜
