Superior Wellness

UPDATE! Superior Wellness successfully completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in aid of Fibromyalgia Action UK this August.

Superior Wellness became a corporate partner of FMA UK in 2021. They have spent the last year raising awareness of fibromyalgia, and their fundraising efforts will support the charity in its mission to help people with our condition.

In August 2021, they 39-strong team conquered the Yorkshire Tough Mudder - a gruelling 10-mile obstacle course over the rolling Yorkshire Dales.

Through various fundraising initiatives over the past year, together with donations from sales of their hot tubs, they raised just under £5000.

This year the Superior Wellness team set themselves the target of the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge, which they completed on Sunday, the 28th of August. Their team climbed Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough in under 12 hours and raised £820 for us.

Their fundraising will be ongoing throughout 2022, and a recent cake sale has raised a further £77.

Fibromyalgia Action UK would like to thank Superior Wellness for their partnership over the year. Des Quinn, Chair of Fibromyalgia Action UK added:

"We really appreciate the effort, conviction, and time donated by the team at Superior Wellness. It’s an amazing amount they have raised that will help the newly diagnosed receive support that they desperately need."

This article from the Guardian highlights the dilemma that a lot of people with fibromyalgia have when it comes to exercise, as well as some suggestions for slow and gradual exercises which can be of benefit to general health.

"Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that causes widespread muscle pain and tenderness. It is often accompanied by fatigue, altered sleep, cognitive disturbance and emotional distress. It usually develops in middle adulthood and affects more women than men. In Australia, fibromyalgia affects 2% to 5% of the population."
