Meet Raya
Joey's beautiful daughter Raya was born in July 2023, and to his surprise was diagnosed with Albinism.
Albinism is an inherited genetic condition, characterised by partial or complete absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes.
One in 17,000 people are born in the UK with Albinism. Heartbreakingly, due to this, children with albinism are also diagnosed visually impaired.
This results in lifelong moderate/severe visual impairments, for which there is currently no cure.
Gift of Sight Charity
The University of Southampton Gift of Sight Appeal funds world-class research into the prevention and treatment of blindness.
Whilst finding out more about Albinism, Joey came across Dr Helena Lee and her incredible work at the University of Southampton.
Her and her team of scientists have been working hard to find a treatment for albinism, which would help save sight for thousands of children in the UK.
She is excitingly close to finding a cure but needs more funding to complete her research.
Joey's mission
Joey was so impressed with Helena and her determination to find a treatment, and so saddened by the thought of children like Raya having visual impairments, that he needed to do something to help.
"There are seven types of Albinism, which got me thinking...what if I could run seven marathons in seven days across seven cities of the UK whilst raising awareness and funds for this vital research?
A personal, physical challenge for me but the opportunity to make an epic difference to a child’s life, giving them the gift of sight!"
Joey has currently raised £7,986 of his £25,000 target
Join me and help give the gift of sight
By joining this class you not only nourish your own mind body and spirit but you help provide a vital donation towards finding a life changing cure for children with albinism.
I look forward to seeing you on the matt
