Support my challenge to leave MS behind!
I’m taking part in The May 50K. I will be taking on 50km throughout May and leaving my limits behind to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis and better access to treatments!
There are over 150,000 people in the UK living with MS and I need your help to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.
You can now support this work in the UK and around the World because The May 50K supports the MS Society UK and the MS International Federation. I’ve accepted the challenge to change lives.
Please make a donation to support my challenge.
Thank you so much!
My Updates
Why I’m doing this challenge…
In August 2024, my mum passed away suddenly at just 69. It was completely unexpected and a shock to us all. We miss her more than words can express, but we keep her close by sharing memories, talking about her often, and celebrating her always. We were so lucky to have her in our lives.
She is the reason I’m taking on #TheMay50k to raise money for the MS Society.
At just 36, Mum was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) — a chronic condition where the immune system attacks the brain and spinal cord, disrupting nerve signals and causing symptoms like fatigue, vision problems, numbness, and balance issues.
Over the years, her health declined, but her positivity, love, and unwavering support for me and my children never changed. She was, and always will be, an inspiration to me and so many others. That’s why I want to do something in her honour and help support research into this incurable disease.
From 1st–31st May, I’ve challenged myself to walk 50k. Mum would have turned 71 on May 20th, so I’m also doing this to celebrate her birthday.
If you’d like to sponsor me, please see the link below 💛
I’ll keep you updated throughout May (and probably share a selfie or two along the way!).
