It’s a disease that affects hundreds of thousands – and potentially millions – of people in the UK and across the globe.

Indeed, Daisy Ilchovska describes it as the world’s most misunderstood pandemic.

Ten per cent of all proceeds will go to the charity, Lyme Disease UK.

Lyme Disease is the fastest-growing vector-borne bacterial infection (viral diseases transmitted by vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, lice, biting flies, and fleas) in the UK.
