Meet Shani, a remarkable 70-year-old warrior from Inverness, Scotland, who has been living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) for many years. Despite the daily challenges of this condition, her spirit remains unbreakable, this year she’s turning her milestone birthday into an inspiring mission to give back to the community that has supported her.

The Oxygen Works is a vital charity in Inverness that provides life-changing oxygen therapy, wellness services, and specialist equipment to people with chronic illnesses like MS. It’s a place close to Shani’s heart, where she’s found strength, community, and the tools to keep moving forward. Now, she’s lacing up her determination and setting off on a mission to cycle 70 miles in honour of her 70th birthday—all on a specialist adaptive bike provided by the charity itself.

This won’t be a one-day sprint; Shani plans to build up gradually, pedalling set distances each day until she hits that triumphant 70-mile mark. Every mile represents her resilience and determination to beat MS, and to show just how much the support of her loved ones, and the incredible work of The Oxygen Works means to her. Your donations will directly help the charity continue offering essential services to those who need them most, ensuring more people can live fuller, more active lives despite their health battles.

Join Shani on this journey of hope and perseverance. Whether it’s £5 or £50, every contribution pedals us closer to the goal. Let’s show MS who’s boss—together!
