Ellen's first marathon for Motor Neurone Disease Association

Ellen Greaves is raising money for Motor Neurone Disease Association
In memory of David Greaves

Shakespeare Marathon & Half-Marathon · 26 April 2026 ·

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

Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page supporting the MND Association.

I'm raising money in memory of my amazing cousin David Greaves. After a full and active start to life, Dave was only 30 when he was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. As for so many people, he passed away soon after this - within 15 months - but not before he had married the love of his life, wrote some incredible children's stories, and made sure his friends and family knew they were loved. You can learn more about Dave here: https://stanagepress.com/about-david/

This is my first marathon but I think Ironman Dave would be proud - better late than never!

Sponsor me on here and your money will help change the lives of people affected by motor neurone disease in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and their families.

JustGiving will send your donation directly to the MND Association.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure – your details are safe, they’ll never sell them or send unwanted emails.

Every penny you donate matters. Thank you!
