Story

As many of you will know, I lost my amazing mum 20 years ago to Motor Neurone Disease (MND) A condition with no known cure or preventative medicine and a condition that took my mums independence, ability to communicate, spirit, dignity and eventually her life at just 61 years young meaning I have grown, developed and built my own life over the last 20 years without her in it.

Over the last 10 years, I have done various events and activities to raise funds and awareness in her name for others living with, loving those and lost to MND and I am just £2115 away from hitting the £70,000 mark raised in her memory.

Every day, 6 people will be diagnosed with MND and 6 people will die from MND so I plan to do 6 events in 2025 to represent those we lose daily. People like mum and the 5 others we lost to MND on that day.

Thank you so much for your incredible support over the years, I couldn't have done it without YOU and we go again to try and achieve a world free from MND.

All funds go to the MND Association who focus on improving access to care, research and campaigning for those people living with or affected by MND in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. By sponsoring me your money will help people affected by Motor Neurone Disease. Once you donate, JustGiving will send your money directly to the MND Association.
