I didn't know anything about MND until I lost my dad to it in 2008. After seeing what this devastating disease done to him I've recently got involved with MND Merseyside and have been helping raise money. I've already done a successful club night in Liverpool, football matches and I am now doing a sky dive On 29th September 2013.

I am trying to create awareness for this global killer with no cause and no cure.
