Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to take on the challenge of the Sheffield half marathon to get rid of my beer belly...as per my picture...whilst trying to raise some money for two causes which are close to my family's hearts. My brother in law died tragically last year. He had Alports Syndrome which affects the kidneys, hearing and later in life the eyes. Alport uk gives other people with the syndrome, and their families, the help and support they need to cope with daily life. I will also be donating half of the money raised to the MS Society in memory of my dad who died a number of years ago but who suffered from MS. The MS society leads the way in research into the disease and huge steps have already been made in trying to combat some of the debilitating affects of the disease. Any donations received on this site will go to Alport uk and any cash donations will go the the MS Society. We will ensure that each charity receives half of the total funds raised.

Thankyou for your support. Nick
