Blake Acklin is raising funds for MSNZ and MS Otago by doing the 3000km Te Araroa Trail. Why?
Because, as Blake says “If you google MS you’ll find that for every story of hope, there are 100 more stories of despair. This isn’t a fair representation of the MS community!
I wish I had known that as I scrolled through endless stories showing nothing but wheelchairs and disability. Hopefully, through sharing this journey, we can highlight a story of hope especially for those newly diagnosed and their loved ones.”
You can read more about Blake on the MSNZ website.
