On the 21st September Lizzie, her sister and mum took part in the Fight for Sight Carrots NightWalk. The reason we took part in this walk was to raise awareness of and funds for research into keratoconus. We named our team Cambridge Girls for KC (keratoconus). Lizzie who is only 11 yrs old suffers with KC and is probably facing a corneal transplant in her right when she is older. Hopefully we have made more people aware of keratoconus.
Pictures of us on the night and Lizzie's story can be found on http://www.fightforsight.org.uk/supporter-stories
Lizzie's mum,
