Taking on Tough Mudder
£315
RAISED
PHA UK director of membership Shaun Clayton, his fiancée Becky and friend Zoe all completed a Tough Mudder event at Broughton Hall in North Yorkshire. Shaun said: “It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. It was physically and mentally draining, but that’s nothing compared to what some of our members go through every day. We were delighted when people were coming and asking us about the organisation and looking it up on their phones.”
Pacing pavements for Priya Ajay Anand organised a sponsored 10k walk around Leicester to raise money for the PHA UK in memory of his sister Priya Mistry, who passed away in December 2017. Ajay said "We are pleased that family and friends have helped to raise over £3,000 for PHA UK, in memory of our Priya who we miss dearly. Hopefully this money will be well used towards much needed research."

Running the Downs for Will
Tom Payne, Holly Baker and Seb Tyler from Hampshire ran the South Downs trail half-marathon in memory of their friend Will Acres, who passed away earlier this year. Tom said: “I saw there was a local half marathon happening and decided it would be a great fundraising opportunity for the PHA UK. To raise over £1,000 was incredible we hope that this has carried on Will’s legacy whilst raising awareness of PH.”
