Fundraising for Fight for Sight
Story
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black;">In April 2012 a team of 10 intrepid middle aged men are walking Hadrian's Wall and as they begin their walk Dev Malhotra will be running the Brighton marathon.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black;">Why you may ask? Kevin's son, Joe Pepper, has a condition called choroideremia which is a rare inherited eye disorder that causes progressive sight loss. We're raising money to help fund researchers at <a href="http://www.fightforsight.org.uk/project-display/items/52"><span style="color: black;">Imperial College London</span></a> who are investigating potential treatments for choroideremia. You can find out more about Joe's condition and about the team doing the Hadrian's Wall walk at <a href="http://www.trekforjoe.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: black;">www.trekforjoe.blogspot.com</span></a>.</span></p>
