Hi, thanks for visiting our page.

Check out the dreadful mug shot....so teribbly wrong, don't think orange is mine or Petes colour!!

Why the MS Society? Well, it means a lot to both Pete and myself - I was diagnosed with RRMS in January 2009 and Petes Mother-in-Law has lived with MS for many, many years.  The MS Society has been invaluable to me so far. I can chat with people online and draw on their knowledge - it's great to know other people go through the same issues and you are not alone...not knowing what is around the corner can be very difficult. But me, being me won't accept this lightly and plan to fit in all those lifetime ambitions whilst I can!!! Hence the London Marathon...

Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor us and donations will be quickly processed and passed to the MS Sociey. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charitys behalf where the donor is eligible for this. We really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.

Thanks for taking the time to visit.....

Kim and Pete :o)
