David Poole is raising money for DEBRA
My story
I will be tackling my first full marathon in Manchester on 14th April 2024 for the charity DEBRA, which helps sufferers of the skin condition EB( Epidermolysis Bullosis).
Me and my two sons both suffer from EB, so I'd like to raise money for the condition, especially for those who have the much more severe version. The condition affects the skin and makes it much more prone to blistering. Luckily, ours is the simplex version, which tends to only be noticeable on our feet, especially in hot weather. We've all had times in our lives when we couldn't walk with it, but luckily for us, these are short lived and manageable. For those with the complex version, it can be life threatening. I feel very blessed to be able to run with the condition and, bizarrely, running has actually improved it, but I'd like to help those others who aren't so blessed.
Thank you for checking out my page. Making a donation is fast, easy and secure thanks to Give as you Live Donate. They'll take your donation and pass it onto DEBRA.
