Story

In 2021, my Dad was diagnosed with MND. 

With my friends and family, we set out to raise money in his support and we continue to do so in his memory.

We hope to improve the life of MND sufferers in the future and to help find a cure for this horrific disease. 

So far, we've raised over £10,000 through:

  • A fundraising night at Bradford and Bingley rugby club
  • Prizes generously donated for a raffle and auction
  • Yorkshire 3 Peaks climb 

And now, we're aiming to get to £15,000 through our biggest challenge yet - climbing the national 3 peaks whilst cycling between them. A gruelling task, over 7 days, cycling over 800km and climbing 3,000 metres up the highest mountains in the UK. 

This will be completed in August by me, Louis Bluckert, Joe Walton, Tom Firth, and Steve Goostrey - and not to forget our trusty support vehicle manned by Richard Jefferis. 

Anything you donate is hugely appreciated and we'd love to have you cheering us on at some point too!
