Story

I will be walking as far as possible between London to Brighton for MNDA, in loving memory of Steph’s Mum, Kathy Wiggins, who was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease last year and is sadly no longer with us.

MND is currently and very sadly a death sentence. One diagnosed most will lose the ability to walk, use their arms and hands, speak, eat and ultimately breathe. Most will become completely paralysed and trapped in their own bodies.

However, research has now reached a point where a cure or life-saving treatments are moments from being found.

This is why it is so crucial to raise as much money as possible and help to fund the cure.

About the charity

The MND Association focuses on improving access to care, research and campaigning for those living with or affected by MND in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. If you or a loved one need practical or emotional support, call our Connect Helpline on 0808 802 6262, Mon to Fri between 9am and 4pm.
