Lynsey McCloy, Improvement Advisor in the Primary Care Improvement Team, has been running 10K a day in March to raise money for family friends little Grace, aged 6, and Tommy, 7.
Lynsey said, “Grace and Tommy have been diagnosed with a rare, life-limiting condition called Mitochondrial disease. This is a progressive, degenerative illness that makes every day a challenge for all the family. I’m running every day in March to raise money to create fun experiences for Grace and Tommy. Sometimes I’m joined by friends and colleagues, sometimes I run solo, but I’ll be out running daily until Friday 31 March.”
Lynsey set out to raise £200, and her current fundraising total is a phenomenal 7 times this amount at £1,575.
