Thank you for visiting our Just Giving Page -

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive disease that attacks the motor neurones or nerves in the brain and spinal cord. Degeneration of the motor neurones leads to weakness and wasting of muscles causing increasing loss of mobility in the limbs, difficulties with speech, swallowing and breathing. MND can affect any adult at any age. The number of people who develop MND each year is about two in every 100,000 people and currently 7 in every 100,000 people are living with MND in the UK.

MND is an Incurable disease, it is a rapidly progressive, fatal disease with half of people with MND dying within 14 months of diagnosis.

Sadly in February 2014 our mother Brenda Willmott lost her courageous battle with MND. To date the Brenda Willmott MND tribute foundation has raised £19,500 in her memory.

Brothers Ryan and Ash will be running the Rob Burrow Leeds marathon on the 14th May 2023 in her memory and in honour of Rob Burrow who is currently fighting MND and raising amazing awareness and funds for the MND association. Our aim is to ensure all MND warriors can receive the vital support, medical treatment and care that they all need and ultimately provide vital funds for research so a cure for MND can be found.
