Story

We are five old school friends, now in our 60’s, who have known each other for over 50 years. We are Bruce MacCabe (centre of picture 2), Mark Fielding, Bob Clarke, Scott Lewis and Steve Pettingill.

We are aiming to raise £5000 for the My Name`5 Doddie Foundation. The vision of the Foundation is simple: A World Free of MND.

Bruce’s son Stuart (cover photo) was diagnosed in September 2022 with Motor Neurone Disease {MND} at the age of 34, and not long after the birth of his daughter, who has recently passed her first birthday.

Stuart, a graphic designer, has recently started his own website https://moveonmnd.co.uk/ . Please take some time to visit his site.

Bruce and his wife Steph wanted to do something to help fight MND, it needed to be something that we could all achieve and has meaning to us and Stuart. Bruce and Mark have been going to Spurs games since 1969 and Stuart is also a fan.

The group of five came up with the idea that, between us (and a few more friends hopefully), we would try to sit in every seat in the iconic South Stand of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as many times as we could in the time allowed, maybe even achieving the equivalent of the stadium capacity of 62,800.

We are extremely grateful to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club for enabling us to access the Stadium and facilities for the day.

Additionally, the support we have received from the My Name`5 Doddie Foundation has been invaluable in helping us to make the Challenge happen.

Thank you in anticipation of your kind support and donations.
