Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page

So - what's this all about then? Well, 8 of us all aged 43 to 51 decided to ride (off road) London to Paris in September 2013, around 250 miles approx while raising funds, and just as importantly, awareness, for the MND association.

This was inspired by our friend Steve-he was diagnosed with MND back in 2007, and did a cycle himself for the same charity back in 2008- details of that ride can be seen  at steveevans.co.uk

Sadly Steve's condition is such that he can no longer join us - he would love to be able to. You can find out a little more about how MND affects every moment of Steve's life now in this short film he made for MNDA, and also in Steve's own blog.

Do please take a look at these- this page is not only about raising money, although of course that remains important- the more people are aware of this horrible disease and how it affects people, the better.

Next, the money bit - I can assure you that donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you,

 

Phil
