It has been a very long and emotional journey for Tim, Alex and I since we started this fundraising effort. Sadly Tim is no longer here but he is still and always will be close by. He would have been so proud and happy to see what we have acheived.

Thank you to all the sponsors and those who have donated their time, energy and money. Also thank you to those of you who have supported Alex and I through the pain of Tim's leaving. The sorrow remains but the pain diminishes; without all of you it would have been so much harder. Please continue to stay in touch.

The party last weekend was a fantastic way to draw the fundraising to a close and also to celebrate Tim's life. He would thoroughly approve!

 

 

 

 

Tim sadly passed away on 30th May 2009. We are continuing his challenge and to raise money for MND Scotland. Please visit Tims My Space www.myspace.com/timsspeywaychallenge.

 

 

On Wednesday 29th November 2006 I was diagnosed as having Motor Neuron Disease - www.scotmnd.org.uk . Once I had picked myself up off the floor I thought I had to do something positive and decided in a moment of lucid thought that I would walk the Spey Way and try and raise some money for charity along the way. This is one of four designated long distance footpaths in Scotland and follows the course of the great River Spey from it's source in the Cairngorms to where it enters the Moray Firth (just down the road from where we now live, see photo opposite). More information from www.speysideway.org . I probably won't be able to do a Jayne Tomlinson but as long as I can put one foot in front of the other I will keep going (and even if I have to end it in a wheelchair I will). As Motor Neuron Disease is very close to my heart I would like to raise some money for them to do more research in to this little understood disease, and also Meningitis Research. This is a charity that we have done our little bit for over the years, our son Alex having survived its' ravages at an early age, and it would be good if we could raise some funds for them too. Walking will commence on the 3rd March, and don't worry I won't be galloping to the end! Your support, both monetary and in person if you can make it this far North, would be appreciated as it would be great to share some time together on this adventure.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Scottish Motor Neurone Disease Association will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
