Story

Thanks for visiting our JustGiving page supporting the MND Association.

My dad (age 75) and I (age 46) will be running the Belfast Marathon on Sunday 03 May to raise funds for the Motor Neurone Disease Association a cause profoundly close to our heart. My Uncle Gerry was only 50 years old when he got diagnosed with MND and he bravely battled the conditions. Through this challenge we hope to honour his strength and resilience.

MNDs work is vital in supporting individuals and families affected by this condition providing essential care, resources and funding critical research, every donation will help make a meaningful difference.

If you would like to support us on this journey please consider donating, your generosity will not only inspire us as we train but it will also provide invaluable assistance to countless others affected by MND.

JustGiving will send your donation directly to the MND Association.

Every penny you donate matters.
