We’re thrilled to introduce the 2019 Chuck’s Run Ambassador, Sarah-Anne.

Last year, Sarah-Anne and her family participated in Chuck’s Run, and it was a pivotal point in Sarah’s journey with dystonia.  “ To see the community come together – to know that so many people there – strangers who I didn’t know - had once been alone like me - was a feeling like no other.”
