We assist with funding for research to help those with brain injuries & disease

Story

In memory of my Dad, Ian (Chas) Gerrie who helped me on various cycling events across Europe for 10 years or so, I am going to cycle from my house in Glasgow across to Pollença in Mallorca. If you can support any of the charities chosen to benefit in some small way that would be great.

I am cycling unsupported, paying all my costs, and including gift aid donating £6,250 split between the four charities.

I leave on 11th and hope to arrive on 23th April covering about 1,400 miles.

About the charity

Our main role is to assist in the provision of funds for research groups based in Scotland whose work will ultimately help patients with brain tumours, stroke, head injury, Parkinson’s Disease, depression, schizophrenia, MS, epilepsy or other diseases of the central nervous system. The Foundation has granted over £1 million to early career doctors and scientists to explore new techniques and diagnostic treatments for conditions relating to these disorders of nerves and the nervous system. In so doing we support Scottish groups researching innovative techniques and treatments of neurological conditions.
