New Site Charity Nominations Now Open

I would like to nominate Ataxia UK. Their website is https://www.ataxia.org.uk.

It is a small charity which helps support people affected by ataxia and fund research into causes and potential treatments.

My daughter suffers with Friedreich's Ataxia. This is a genetic illness which attacks the nervous system affecting co-ordination and balance. The symptoms display between the ages of 5 to 17. My daughter just appeared to be very clumsy for a number of years and was diagnosed with the illness at the age of 13. Sadly the illness is progressive, presently incurable and life limiting. The charity provided the support and advice we needed after hearing this dreadful prognosis.

I hope the MSE Team won't mind me posting a reminder.

C. The Vote.

Nominations end on Saturday 26 August. After that there will be a site vote to select the charities. The top two big and two small charities will then each be given 20% of the total money available (ie a third of the entire fund). The winners will be announced in the weekly e-mail

Any last votes out there?
