Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page supporting the MND Association.

It is with sad news that I have to announce the passing of Eddie at home on 18th June, he will be sorely missed

I am part of a team (Myself, Jon Wiggins, Kelly Grove, Dan Scott and Tom Everingham, supported by Lisa Wiggins, and Lindsay Ruthen, in the support vehicle with Justin Ross for our arrival at the JSG, with additional support from Harrogate Pythons RUFC) to cycle the Leeds Liverpool canal from Anfield to Headingley and on to our rugby club Harrogate Pythons RUFC at the Jim Saynor Ground Station View in Starbeck on 6th/7th September, this is in memory of a club member who was diagnosed with MND and recently passed away, (Eddie Kernoghan) #EK12 and also in memory of Rob Burrow #RB7, both who were taken far too early from us, hence our team name will be

#EK12-#RB7

Thank you for visiting our page and hopefully you can donate to this cause, I have friends who have been affected by this disease and wanted to step up and do something to aid in the research and care for those who are affected by this disease, training has stated for this ride and I will be posting updates on this page and also on my Strava page https://strava.app.link/rC06QGXcZSb
