Gill Howe is raising money for Motor Neurone Disease Association
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

BHF London to Brighton 2009 · 21 June 2009 ·

Motor Neurone Disease moves fast. It takes away time, it takes away independence and it has no cure. Every day we support people affected by MND. We fund ground-breaking research. We campaign for better care. We’re here for everyone who needs us. Because with MND, every day matters.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.  As some of you will know, I've always liked a challenge and this time is no different.  After a few drinks one evening, myself and my good friend Andrea, decided that the London to Brighton Cycle Race would be a good challenge to set ourselves.

It is a 54 mile race from Clapham Common to the beach at Brighton.  Training has started and I have just invested in some much-needed padded shorts! 

I will be raising money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association which is a charity very close to my heart, having lost Dad to MND last year.  I want to raise as much money as I can for this very worthwhile cause which helps care for people who are diagnosed with the disease and living through the difficult reality of coping without any hope of a cure.  It also funds scientific research into the causes, treatments and a potential cure for the disease which we hope will one day be a reality.  The race takes place on 21 June (Father's Day).

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Motor Neurone Disease Association gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
