In March 2023, the team donated £4600 to Bart's Charity.
I cycled from Vietnam to Cambodia in 6 Days temperatures up to 40 Degrees, was an amazing experience.
I was fundraising for Bart’s Charity to support the amazing London hospitals, this is a charity close to my Heart, this is my friend Julie’s story below:
My family has all been affected by polycystic kidney disease.
It is a disease that is inherited and causes multiple cysts to form on both kidneys leading to Kidney failure usually between the age of
30-40.
My Father died age 55 after having end stage renal failure at 51
followed by dialysis and then a transplant.
Through research, the drugs to prevent rejection have improved
since then and so has life expectancy.
Even so, the long-term effects of the drugs cause skin cancer and
compromise the immune system.
I am one of 5 siblings. (4 of whom have inherited the disease and
can therefore pass it on)
Myself and 2 sisters have been fortunate to get kidney transplants
and another sister is on the donor list awaiting a kidney. My brother that did
not inherit the disease became a donor instead.
It is so important that research into this disease continues for
future generations in the hope that dialysis and transplantation may not be
necessary.
