Teenager with chronic fatigue syndrome appeals for help to buy a new wheelchair
A former gymnast who had to quit the sport after being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome is desperately fundraising to help buy a new wheelchair.
Sophie Clayton, 16, who lives off Coggeshall Road in Braintree, was once a budding gymnast with a love of floor routines, but had to quit after she was diagnosed last year.
The brave teen was also diagnosed with a number of other conditions including autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), verbal ticks, developmental delay, hypermobility, double scoliosis and sensory issues.
Due to her chronic fatigue syndrome she needs a wheelchair to help her get around.
