On Saturday the 27th of September 2025, in honor of my older sister who has Rett Syndrome, I will be completing 37 x 5-minute rounds of Jiu Jitsu sparing to raise awareness and to help my chosen charity.

Rett Syndrome is a rare genetic neurological and developmental disorder that primarily affects females causing severe impairments. The condition is caused by a mutation in a certain gene on the X chromosome.

Unfortunately, there is no cure but there is continuous research around this disorder.

Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit Rett Syndrome Association of Australia Inc, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about Rett Syndrome Association of Australia Inc: Formed in Melbourne in July 1989, the Rett Syndrome Association of Australia Inc. (RSAA) is a not-for-profit organisation which is managed by a committee of volunteers, most of whom are parents of Rett syndrome children. The Association seeks to enhance the quality of life for persons with the syndrome and their families and be of assistance to anyone interested in the disorder. July 2020 will mark the 31st anniversary of the Association.

Most of all, lets Roll for Rett. Bridget xo
