Story

In the face of adversity, two individuals were brought together by a shared love for rugby and an unexpected diagnosis of Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Despite the challenges that come with this debilitating condition, they are determined to turn their hardship into a force for good.

Under the number 54, representing their rugby jersey numbers, they want your help to join their friends and family with the aim to walk 54 miles from Gloucester Rugby to Abertillery RFC in Wales. This personal journey is not just about covering physical distance; it's about raising funds and awareness for others affected by MND.

The event is set to take place on September 15, 2024, and the goal is to raise £5,454 for the 4Ed campaign and MNDefiance trust. Join this inspiring endeavor and be part of a movement that seeks to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those battling MND.

The team will set off from Kingsholm, the home of Gloucester, at midnight on Sunday 15th June and walk through the night with 4 stops on their way to Abertillery RFC in Wales.
