Welcome to my Blogg. I am doing a 24 hour kayak challange to raise money and awareness of PSP a little known disease. My mum was diagnosed with this recently.

Saturday, 23 June 2012

2 hours to go before I start my adventure. Thanks so much to Mum and Dad for being such influential and inspirational parents. This is for you guys.
Thank you also to all my supporters who are going to get wet and tired on the water and those who are going to support me along the way, it will make all the difference.
This challenge is for all those people who are suffering with terminal illnesses with no or little hope and who rely on family and carers to maintain their dignity and quality of life, you are the true heros.

To all those who have contributed and sponsored me a huge thank you we have raised around £1500 for the PSP association and the total is rising.

  1. Thanks to your brother in law, I now know about PSP. As a campaigner for ME and other neurological conditions, I just wanted to thank you and also learn about PSP. Without "wellies"/ healthy folk - call them what you will - many extremely vulnerable people would be suffering more than they already do so. I hope that the voyage is successful and that you haven't suffered with the typical British weather! Have just this second heard that you are 6 hours in and so far so good! Regards, Sarah

  2. Thank you for your comments Sarah. It all went well and lots of stories to tell so hopefully the campaign to raise awareness has only just started.
