Thanks for this, should be interesting. The first episode was good with a lady who suffers from anxiety and a man with fatigue. Both of which were symptoms of fibro. Interesting ideas, worth watching on catch up.

Hello ken got a few questions when I do the Swindon half marathon do I need to complete the course in the same day and how do I get people's sponsor money thanks matthew

[Manu2015 in reply to TheAuthor]

Hello ken bit of a change of plan I'm no longer going to walk the Swindon half marathon because some of the route is on country roads and therefore not safe to walk on my own but I'm going to do a different sponsored walk in my local area which is much safer to walk it's a 11.49 mile walk I'm still going to do the walk on Sunday 3rd September do I need to re do that form u posted me yetday thanks matthew

Hi Manu2015 that sounds great my friend and much better for your Fibro than running? I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck with this.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Hello ken I've seen a sponsor form on your fundraising page is it OK to print it out and if anyone wants to give gift aid how much should they give thanks matthew

[TheAuthor in reply to Manu2015]

Hi Manu2015 I can see that my colleague and friend, Hazel, has replied to you about the form. Good luck my friend

Hi Manu, there is no need to resubmit the form due to you changing what you are doing. My colleague Ella will be in touch regarding how FMA UK can support her if you just give her the new details by email we will update your info.

Good luck xxx

Hello hazel I already resubmitted the form I've seen some sponsor forms your fundraising page would it be OK to print them out to get sponsor money and if anyone want to give gift aid how much do they need to give thanks matthew

[Hazel_Angelstar Administrator FMA UK Staff in reply to Manu2015]

Hi, yes there is no problem with printing out sponsor forms.

There is no minimum donation for people who can claim gift aid; but they must include their full name and address and tick the gift aid box

Good luck with your fundraising
