So why am I doing this..?

Thanks for visiting!

I have chosen to run for Arthritis UK in support of family and friends who have previously and who continue to show amazing and humbling resilience in the face of this condition. It doesn't discriminate when it comes to age or anything else and anything that can be done to fight against the condition is something that supports those who live with it.

Just for reference, here are some stats about where fundraising will go:

£27 could help fund use of specialist equipment for an hour.

£100 helps provide a lab with necessary supplies needed to study the causes of arthritis and develop better treatments. 

1 in 6 people live with Arthritis.

1 in 2 people will develop Osteoarthritis by the time they're 70.

Over 10 million people in the UK live with arthritis, affecting their ability to work, study, care for family, move free from pain and live independently. But arthritis is still poorly understood and far too little is done.

Anything that you are able to sponsor will help and will be massively appreciated.

Thank you!
