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, like my Dad.

This will be the 4th major challenge I have undertaken to raise vital funds and awareness, and 3rd marathon (who’d have thought it). Thanks to the generosity of our amazing family and friends over the years I have raised over £17,000, but I’m not stopping there!

Raising awareness and funds for the MND Association will never be a one off thing for me and my family, as we sadly know first hand the devastating affects the disease has on its sufferers and those around them.

My dad, my hero and the bravest person I know has been living with MND 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 Association to fund research and support for its sufferers and those around them who are effected is so important! With every penny you donate we’re one step closer to finding a cure.

My minimum fundraising amount for the marathon is £2,700 which goes to the MND Association. For anything raised over this amount, 50% will be going to the MND Hertfordshire branch who have supported my dad over the years with monthly meetings with other MND sufferers as well as equipment he’s needed as the disease progresses, with the other 50% going to the MND Association.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support 💙🧡
