Story

My brother in-law and I are on a mission to raise funds and awareness to help support the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

On the 24th April we will take on a 100 mile coastal route from Bournemouth to Seaton, trekking over beaches, cliffs and through forests. Our target is to complete this in one stint, without a stop over and carrying everything we will need to complete the trek.

This charity is close to the heart of our family since my dad Martin, and Mikes father-in-law, was diagnosed with MND in 2011. Motor Neurone Disease is a life shortening, rapidly progressing neurological disease that attacks the nerves that control movement, it can affect the way you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. There is currently no cure but the association are fighting to find breakthroughs and to help improve the lives of people living with MND. Fundraising is crucial to the charity as they are not government funded.

Thank you for sponsoring us, it will give us the motivation to push through the pain and reach our target :)
