Knowledge is power and research is required for knowledge. For this reason we support the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. The foundation was established by Doddie Weir and the trustees in response to his frustration at the lack of options given to MND sufferers – “no effective treatment, no access to meaningful clinical trials and no hope” - the exact situation that we also found ourselves in.

We are also keen to help our local community here in Carmarthenshire so part of the funds raised will also go to support the hospice run by the multi-faith community at Skanda Vale. The independent hospice was founded in 1993 and the team is made up, almost entirely, of highly skilled volunteers.
