Jean Best, my Mum, is stepping out for the Macular Society to Beat Macular Disease. She wants a cure so that no one else loses their sight like she has. Mum fractured her hip last year so any steps are a miracle and testament to the work she, Tom McGregor her physio and the staff at St Mary’s Riverside Hessle, have put in. Mum is aiming at 16000 steps.

Macular disease is the biggest cause of sight loss in the UK, with around 300 people diagnosed every day.

It steals your sight, your confidence, and your ability to do the things you love.

There is only one way to Beat Macular Disease for good. We must fund much more research now, until we find a cure, or find treatments that stop it in its tracks.

Thank you for your support. Let's Beat Macular Disease together.
