Archie Williams is no ordinary 10 year old.

Similar to alot of lads his age he loves his rugby, BJJ and football but like all superheroes, Archie has another side to him.

Archie is a fundraiser, a young carer and a young man who is going through something only a few children will experience.

Archie's dad, Mark (another superhero) was diagnosed with MND in July 2022. Since diagnosis, Mark has gone on to set up The MNDefiance Trust, which raises money to support families living with Motor Neurone Disease as well as supporting many, many other MND charities in their fundraising endeavours.

Archie has been an integral part in these fundraising efforts in his dad's name and is showing MND that the Williams clan are true warriors and aren't taking this fight lying down. Despite the hectic schedule this lad has, he's found time to raise thousands for the cause.

On Saturday 9th of August, Archie will be completing a 10km run and is asking as many of you as possible to join him, in running alongside him. Come on down to run as much as you feel like doing. Come to cheer Archie and the other runners on. Come to show your support for the Williamses in this fight against MND.

No entry fee is required but all donations are very welcome and appreciated!!!
