Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page raising money for the MND Association. By sponsoring me your money will help people affected by Motor Neurone Disease.

My dad, my hero and the bravest person I know has been living with a version of MND called Flail Arm Syndrome since 2015.

Watching someone you love decline in health not only physically but mentally is something I do not wish for anyone to experience which is why raising money for the MND Associstion to fund research and support for its sufferers to hopefully one day find a cure is so important!

On 7th April 2024 (which also happens to be my birthday), I will be running the Brighton marathon! Anyone that knows me knows I am not a runner nor do I enjoy it, as my dodgy knee keeps reminding me while training! I have tried to talk myself out of doing this so many times putting barriers in the way, but then I remember that people living with MND don’t get a choice to quit when times get hard, so why should I have that privilege?!

My Dad is my inspiration. Despite everything he is going through he still has a smile on his face and enjoys everyday for what it is. He is the best Dad and Grandad that anyone can wish for and is admired by everyone around him, so please please please donate what you can for my Dad, anyone that has been affected by MND and this very deserving charity.
