We formed team ATS following the recent passing of my Father who lived with MND for 22 years. We are raising funds for MND Scotland by taking part in the Edinburgh 7 Summits Challenge.
The challenge:
A 35km trek with 900m of ascents across the 7 summits of Edinburgh.
The Charity:
MND Scotland is the only Scottish charity providing care and support to people affected by motor neuron disease (MND), as well as funding research to take us a step closer to a cure. MND is a rapidly progressing terminal illness which can affect the ability to walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe unaided of those affected. We want a world without MND, so we are fundraising because we want to help find a cure for this devastating disease. Sponsoring us will help MND Scotland to provide practical, financial, and emotional support to people affected by MND.
On behalf of Peter, myself and my Family Thank you.
