Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In August 2023, my father-in-law, Dean, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Over the following months, we watched this cruel illness take everything from him — his ability to walk, speak, eat, and finally, his life in December 2024. MND currently has no cure, and families like ours are left feeling helpless in the face of its relentless progression.

In his memory, I am aiming to raise £500 to support finding a cure for this cruel disease. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to a future without MND. Thank you for your support and for helping us honour his legacy with hope.
