Story

On April 5th 2020 a group of my friends and family will be running the Reading Half Marathon to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease Association.

My wonderful Dad was tragically diagnosed at Easter last year and, true to his word, was an inspiration till the end. Everyday he made everyone laugh and managed to keep his positive outlook on life in spite of this unfair and cruel diagnosis. 

The MND association have been a huge support to our family and we would love to give something back and support further research into treatments and cures for this disease in the future. This disease brought a helpless feeling, but raising money has made us feel like we are fighting back.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
