Mary Laver

I have being severely disabled for over 25 years with Rheumatoid Arthritis (64) which for the past 24 years has made me totally human and wheelchair dependent. In 2010 I drove my power chair from Lands End 2 John o'Groats a distance of 997 miles in 24 days 9 hours getting in to the GWR book raising £1000 for the RBL. I have raised other monies for charity by been pushed in my manual wheelchair 14 Great North Runs. For the past 10 years I put aside 2 weeks in November to sell poppies. I have applied to be a Games Maker. I am the sort of person that has a glass half full not half empty. If chosen I would be proud to carry the Olympic torch in my power chair.
