I am raising money for My Name' 5 Doddie as part of Durham’s Line Up Fashion Show. I am delighted to be supporting this charity after losing my cousin Christopher to Motor Neuron Disease. Seeing how detrimental it is, increased research into MND is so essential.

I am planning on cycling the Scottish Coast from Berwick-upon-Tweed to Edinburgh on the 3rd of June; I love cycling but can't say I've ever cycled very far, so this will be a tough challenge!

Please donate if you can <3

P.S. If you want to set me a challenge (e.g. only listening to Scottish music the whole route) let me know on your donation!

Doddie Weir OBE was one of rugby’s most recognisable personalities. In 2017 he revealed he was suffering from Motor Neuron Disease. From the outset, Doddie was driven to help fellow sufferers and seek ways to further research into this, as yet, incurable disease.

The Foundation is committed to helping improve the lives of those affected by Motor Neuron Disease. We help to fund grants, giving considerable sums to our friends at MND Association and MND Scotland to administer to individuals and families living with MND, initiate and encourage research to better understand the information and support needs of MND patients and their families. We engage with patients through the provision of information about latest developments and the opportunity to shape research priorities clinical trials and rapidly translating results into clinical practice.
