Walking · 22 November 2025

Motor Neurone Disease moves fast. It takes away time, it takes away independence and it has no cure. Every day we support people affected by MND. We fund ground-breaking research. We campaign for better care. We’re here for everyone who needs us. Because with MND, every day matters.

Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page in support of the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

On November 22, 2025, I will be participating in a walk from Oxen Cove to the Berryhead hotel in Brixham to raise awareness and funds for those living with or affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND). This cause is incredibly close to my heart. In January 2025, I was diagnosed with MND and my mobility has significantly deteriorated since this diagnosis. Whilst I can, I want take some positive steps (literally and metaphorically) to try and raise as much money as I can for a cause that helps so many people every day, including myself. The MND Association is dedicated to improving access to care, advancing research, and advocating for those affected by this challenging condition across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

By sponsoring me on this journey, you are making a profound difference in the lives of many. Your generous donations will directly support the vital work of the MND Association, helping to provide essential resources and support for those who need it most. Together, we can bring hope and change to those battling MND.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure—your details are safe with them; they will never sell your information or send unwanted emails. I am aiming to raise £1,000 for this important cause. Every contribution counts and brings us one step closer to making a significant impact. Thank you once again for your support!
