Meet some of our incredible fundraisers – our everyday heroes!

Throughout 2025, ASUK has been supported by some incredible fundraisers – doing amazing challenges to support our cause.

In February 2025, Aidan did the impressive challenge of 10K a day for 10 days!

“We would like to do this on behalf of our daughter Sheila as thank you to Alström UK for the support provided to us since diagnosis 2021. We attend a clinic annually where they provide a multi-disciplinary clinic. They organise accommodation for us and provide us with meals. The charity is amazing and the team provide support to us whenever we need it. Sheila is an amazing little girl, who has been through so much for someone so little, both of our families are very proud of her. We are determined that this illness will not define her. Any donation would be greatly appreciated, I’m running 10k a day for 10 days, starting 21st Feb for 10 days. I’m ready to hit the roads…lets go”

Millie and Pete from New College Worcester, took on a 24 hour fitness challenge in June 2025 in aid of ASUK and NCW, well done to you both!
