Joe Carlile is running the London Marathon on the 23rd April to raise vital funds for deterMND.

The aims of deterMND are very simple:

Raise funds for the MND Association for research and patient care
Raise funds for the deterMND (Anto Finnegan)

MND is a neurological condition for which there is no cure, with an average prognosis of 2-5 years after diagnosis. The disease causes motor neurons to stop functioning, meaning signals fail to reach their intended muscles. This causes the muscles to waste and die, leading to complete immobility. Senses such as sight, hearing and touch remain unaffected.

Since 2013 deterMND has raised in excess of £140,000 for MND research and to support the MND Association. In 2015 & 2016 they made donations to Project MinE, which focuses on the sequencing of DNA in order to identify and ultimately treat faulty genes associated with MND. In 2017 they plan to make further donations to research projects which align to the aims and objectives of deterMND.

Of course none of this is possible without the support of you!

Thank you.
