Hello, my name is Daniel and along with my incredible friend Tom, we want to share a deeply personal story about our close friend who has recently been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Jon was a keen sportsman and advocate of life but his world was destroyed when he started to suffer with loss of strength and muscle twitches. The news of his diagnosis has profoundly impacted him, his family, and all of us who care about him. It’s truly heartbreaking to witness someone so vibrant face such a challenging journey.

To watch someone go through such difficult circumstances and not be able to stop what is happening is heartbreaking and something we never thought we would have to face in life. The diagnosis that is robbing him of his strength only gave us more! We wanted to do something to support our friend and the thousands of other families going through the same trauma. In light of this, we have decided to do something bigger than us and participate in the Brighton Marathon on April 12, 2026.

This organization plays a crucial role in improving access to care, advancing research, and advocating for those affected by MND across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

We invite you to join us in this fight against MND. Your generous support will not only help my friend but also countless others facing similar battles. By sponsoring us through JustGiving, your donation will go directly to the MND Association. The process is simple, fast, and secure—your details are safe with them.

Thank you for taking the time to visit this fundraising page and for considering a donation that can make a real difference.
