Story

In February this year after a hard battle with cancer Rea got struck down with Guillain-Barré syndrome. 

Its 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. Rea is doing well with her recovery but unfortunately not everyone will be able to.

All her colleagues family and friends are spending the month of May raising money and awareness for this terrible and relatively unknown syndrome through the Guillain-barré charity GAIN.

GAIN  help people understand and manage both acute and chronic variants of the syndrome, they raise awareness, and promote clinical and non-clinical research into these conditions. For more info visit www.gaincharity.org.uk

Please join us for our 5K Walk For Rea on the 31st of May at 6:30 leaving from our Hampstead Branch at 63-67 Heath street, Nw36ug
