Connors Custom Build
Connor is twelve and was diagnosed with Narcolepsy and Cateplexy in 2011.
With the correct medication and lifestyle changes, Connor can lead a relatively normal life. Sadly there is no “cure” for Narcolepsy. Naturally Connor and other sufferers would hope that one day there is.
He wants to raise much needed awareness of Narcolpesy. This condition is often mocked or misunderstood.
Connor had a simple idea, using technology as an incentive to raise awareness. We discussed his plan and reached out for support. His requests where filled by an unbelievable list of sponsors.
Narcolpesy UK does a phenomenal job of supporting and advising so many people. All funds raised are donated to them.
