    Fundraising for the MS Society via running4ms.co.uk

    Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition of the central nervous system.
    In MS, the coating around nerve fibres (called myelin) is damaged, causing a range of symptoms.
    Around 100,000 people in the UK have MS. It's normally diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 and 40, and affects almost twice as many women as men.

    Fundraising for the MS Society via running4ms.co.uk

    Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition of the central nervous system.
    In MS, the coating around nerve fibres (called myelin) is damaged, causing a range of symptoms.
    Around 100,000 people in the UK have MS. It's normally diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 and 40, and affects almost twice as many women as men.

    Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage the symptoms. We don't know the cause and we haven't yet found a cure, but research is progressing fast.
    [from: http://www.mssociety.org.uk/what-is-ms/information-about-ms/about-ms]


    MS is very much a personal ‘condition’ which affects everyone in various ways. It can be a very isolating, frustrating and even frightening condition certainly in the initial diagnosis stages and unfortunately can change with little notice. The MS Society is a fantastic resource of support, not just to those with MS but also their families.

    Around 100,000 people in the UK have MS. It's normally diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 and 40, and affects roughly three times as many women as men. Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage the condition and its symptoms.

    All donations will go towards The MS Society the UK’s leading MS charity. Since 1953 they've been providing information and support, funding research and fighting for change.
    The MS Society fund research, give grants, campaign for change, provide information and support, invest in MS specialists and lend a listening ear to those who need it.

    You can find out more about David and his running for MS at www.running4MS.co.uk or donate directly at www.justgiving.com/Running4MSUK
