He did it!!! Well done Jimmy & Happy Birthday

Thank you to everyone for supporting Jimmy on Saturday and for sharing his 65miles at 65 challenge to support and raise awareness for Reverse Rett.

This was such a tough challenge but he did it because in Jimmy’s words “I can and they can’t”  if you would still like to show your support please help raise awareness for Reverse Rett and you can still donate at Alive & Well gym or via Justgiving

We managed to get him to stand still for 10 minutes to wish him good luck and happy birthday before he set off on his mammoth task of running not just one but two and a half marathons.

Rett Syndrome is a neurological condition which effects young children normally between the age of 1-2 years old and leave them with unbelievable disabilities and life challenges.
