Thank you for visiting Gez and Tim's JustGiving page.
This year we will be taking on the 30 Mile Big Walk - on Friday 28 June 2024 - in support of Motor Neurone Disease Research at the University of Sheffield.
Any donations are appreciated to help us reach our fundraising goal!
30 Miles is a really long way. Tim and I have been doing our bet to prepare for the event, but we know it is going to be rather challenging.
MND is a terminal condition. It affects the brain and nerves and is nearly always fatal. There is currently no cure. It is commonly regarded as a rare condition. But this isn't true. 1 in every 300 people, across all UK communities, will develop MND in their lifetime. MND kills six people in the UK every day, with a third of those diagnosed losing their lives within just a year. Tragically, people die from this devastating disease because there are currently no treatments that can stop it. Your support can make a much needed breakthrough in MND come sooner. And improve the lives of patients long into the future.
