Story

John, Emma, Ben and Will

We are raising money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association in memory of Grandad Bobby who lost his battle with MND in 2016. For those of you that knew Bobby will know how much of an incredible man he was and how much our family greatly misses him. As non-runners, we’ve decided the Leeds Half Marathon is a great challenge to take on (he’d probably think we’re mad!). It starts and finishes at Headingley Stadium, where we have very happy memories with Grandad who was a huge Rugby fan and a frequent visitor of Headingley! 

Currently there is no cure for MND and we want to help change that whilst in the meantime helping to support other families that are going through it. We would really appreciate your support. Every donation counts!

£120 could provide an overbed table, making it easier for someone with MND to eat, drink and read safely and comfortably in bed 

£230 could fund the coordination of care for someone with MND at a Care Centre for a year

£500 could provide a tablet device with specialist communication software, allowing someone to communicate with loved ones

£750 could fund an MND expert researcher for a week
