Ian said: “In October 2019, my wife Pauline was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Since that time, Pauline has been very grateful for the services offered by the Sussex MS Centre in Southwick The oxygen therapy has been especially helpful in alleviating the fatigue and pain caused by MS.
“Covid has hit the charity hard, and I am looking to raise much-needed funds to help them to continue their amazing work.
“My target is to raise £390, enough to purchase 10 oxygen masks for use with the oxygen therapy service.”
