Funding Harrison's Paralympic Dream

Harrison was one of my son Patrick's first friends at nursery school when they started aged 3 or 4. Not long before they went up to primary school, Harrison found out he was suffering with DMD - Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. This very rare genetic disorder still has no cure and will mean Harrison is unlikely to reach close to the age I am today.

Harrison's ambition right now is to become a Paralympian and represent Team GB at Boccia...and in his own words...

My dream is self-funded… entry fees, hotels, flights, and equipment and more...

Unfortunately, at the moment there is no access to the financial support I need to travel the UK and The World this year, 2023, to try and reach my dream of competing at the Paralympics. The World Youth Championships alone will cost over £3500

I need your help to get me there.

In return I can promise you this, I will do my best, I will try to make you all proud of me, I’ll share my progress, the wins, the losses (hopefully not too many of those) my experiences, my competitions and my training, all on my Instagram @boccia_harrison

Thats, why I'm asking for you to consider supporting me taking on both the Surrey Half and the Brighton Marathon in the next few weeks by donating - either here on my GoFundme page, all of which will go directly to Harrison and his Paralympic dream, or to Harrison's Fund, the charity set up by Harrison's Dad to help ensure this awful disease, can one day be cured..

Thank you !
