PMRGCAuk's Marathon in a Month

Marathon in a Month
Campaign by PMRGCAuk (RCN 1128723)
We're encouraging patients, family, friends & supporters to walk a marathon in July to raise funds & awareness so that we can continue to provide support for patients when they are newly diagnosed & throughout their journey with PMR & GCA.

Story

We are members of Kent and Surrey Support Groups raising funds for PMRGCAuk this month.

Christine, Penny and Marianne and Ann are walking a marathon during July to support the valuable work done by PMRGCAuk.

PMRGCAuk is the only UK charity dedicated to PMR and GCA, providing information, support, and reassurance to people with either of these conditions. The charity also helps raise awareness in the medical world and in the general population.

The conditions can be life-changing, with GCA being the leading medical cause of sudden onset blindness. Getting a prompt diagnosis and treatment is vital. With your help, we can achieve more and support more people.

Our goal is £500. Whether you're in Kent or elsewhere if you'd like to join us in our walking marathon email orpington@pmrgca.org.uk to find out how you can take part where you live

Donate and you will be making a real difference.

We help people with Polymyalgia Rheumatica & Giant Cell Arteritis, & raise awareness about these diseases that can suddenly attack people aged 50+. PMR causes extreme pain in the muscles & joints & affects mobiliity. GCR can cause sudden blindness if not treated immediately. We believe we can save the sight of hundreds of people a year by raising awareness.
