Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A couple of years ago whilst the world was raising money through the Ice Bucket Challenge, little did I know that MND, the very reason for the challenge , would become a disease very close to home and rock my/our world. I know many of you know my / our story.... you also know of our hope and faith, yet amidst that, we see first hand the effects of MND on those affected and their families and as October month is fundraising for "Silence Speaks" .. how can we bypass not raising awareness and raising money to help all those affected.

Luke and I want to bring awareness to a disease that has affected us and one with no cure as yet!

Having walked for Cancer Research; walked to raise money for Christian aid; now it's time to fight for a disease that has touched our home.

This October, stop talking. Let silence help people affected by MND. We tend to take our voice for granted, but some don’t have this luxury. One of the most worrying and devastating aspects people with MND face is losing their voice.

Help us raise awareness by standing in solidarity with the thousands of people and families living with MND who have difficulty speaking.

More than a sponsored silence. Silence Speaks challenges supporters to find other ways to communicate during October

Luke and I will be silent for 24 hours commencing at 4pm on Thursday 12 October 2017 . Luke will be silent whilst also at School and I at work : )

Every penny donated will make a difference to people with MND and their families. You could fund vital research to help us find a cure, and help support people living with MND now.
