I just wanted to check back in and repeat my big thanks for all the donations made to date its very much appreciated in helping reach our target and hopefully even exceed the figure with all your help. I also wanted to briefly outline what some of your kind donations will do to make a difference to a person living with MND. Here are just a few examples:

£15 buys an adapted cutleryset. For someone with MND it’s
more than just a cutlery set, it’s the dignity of being able to feed
yourself.

£50 funds laboratory equipment for a days vital research into finding out the causes of MND.

£150 operates the MND Connect support and information line for
half a day – having someone to talk to really can make a world of
difference.

£500 funds the installation of a stair lift – anything that can extend independence and allow someone to stay in their own home is so important.

£1,000 buys a riser recliner armchair to help maintain a level of mobility for those who can no longer stand unaided.

£3,000 funds an MND expert researcher for one month and keeps the hope of a cure alive.

A big thanks to all who have donated on the first morning/day of my website being live, it's much appreciated!

 

Website opened Feb 27th 2012

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. The page has been set up to cover my wacky idea to raise much needed funds and do something worthwhile for a well deserving charity which helps many families on a day to day basis assisting those suffering from Motor Neurone Disease which has touched the heart of our family too in recent times.

The challenge set, is to drive around the coast of Great Britain (England-Wales-Scotland) using A & B roads mainly and keeping the sea within view whereever possible - all in 8 days!!!!!!! 

A TRACKING TOOL IS IN PLACE TO ENABLE YOU TO VISUALLY SEE A MAP OF PROGRESS ALONG THE ROUTE AT:

www.trackmytour.com/X9kGf

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now every little helps the cause.

Sean & Family.
