One Man. 10 Days. An epic challenge.
At 7am on 28 July, PKU dad Ian Spriggs will jog out of the car park at Southmead Hospital, Bristol and point his battered trainers north.
Ten days, 110-ish hours of foot‑time, and roughly 370 miles later, he hopes to trot through the doors of the Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle, the hospital that has supported his daughter Molly since birth.
Please support Ian’s quest!

I wish more people knew about the use of food restrictions as a medical treatment.
Many see the word 'diet' or food restrictions as a lifestyle choice, to be ignored or dismissed.
In truth, many medical conditions are treated through the use of food restrictions.
You never know what someone else is dealing with, but you can choose how you react to their requests.
What do you wish people knew more about?
Just released my new PKU books. An ABC reader and a colouring book

- and have been checked by PKU clinicians.

I was at a conference today run by a support group of a particularly rare disorder, and while I was standing at the front outlining current advocacy efforts and discussing engagement with David Seymour (Assoc. Min of Health with responsibility for Pharmac) someone piped up with "Don't you just love him?"
To which my answer was, "No."
I then politely moved on to the next topic of discussion.
Catch up on this great discussion about creativity and rare disease.
