The MS Plus Southern Alps Adventure

I AM TREKKING THE SOUTHERN ALPS TO FIGHT MS!

I am trekking through New Zealand's rugged Southern Alps to support research into cures and whatnot for MS.
I have second stage progressive MS and lucky enough to have found out whilst the amazing medication available works to slow it down. However there are many factors that can interfere with the effectiveness of medicine available and we are working hard to raise funds in the hope a cure is found before the medication (Tysabri) that I am on, and my body, stops working.
Our amazing team will be tackling a challenging 5-day trek. We’re asking you to donate what you can.
If you feel more compelled and up to it, the why not join us?! What a brilliant adventure in the name of a good cause.
Your support, large or small, will contribute to support not only me but also the incredible work of MS Plus. Please donate to our page. It would mean so very much 🙏🏻
