Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Myself and a group of other students currently on a placement year with Toyota (GB) plc are participating in the Lake District Ultra Challenge on 10/06/23. We will be walking 50km in a day to raise money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

With MND, messages from the motor neurones gradually stop reaching the muscles. This leads the muscles to weaken, stiffen and waste, which can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. Some people also get changes to their thinking and behaviour, but the disease affects everyone differently. Not all symptoms will affect everyone, or in the same order. Symptoms also progress at varying speeds, which makes the course of the disease difficult to predict.

MND is life-shortening and there is no cure. Although the disease will progress, symptoms can be managed to help achieve the best possible quality of life.

The MND Association focuses on improving access to care, research and campaigning for those people living with or affected by MND in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
