Story

Toyota staff voted for the MND Association to be shortlisted and were subsequently chosen for the partnership due to the Associations strong focus on mobility and wheelchair adaptation to enable more independence for people living with MND.

This particular page will be supporting Jake as he and his Toyota colleagues embark on the mammoth 350+ mile, 5-day cycle from Portsmouth to Newcastle upon Tyne. Follow Jake on X (@JakePompeySmith) and tune in to 93.7 Express FM throughout the week of the ride (w/c 24th June 2024) to keep up-to-date with where Jake is and how the team are doing!

We are proud to be working together in our fundraising efforts; every pound counts in trying to help find a cure and care for those with this disease.

Motor Neurone Disease can affect anyone at any time and it affects up to 5,000 adults in the UK at any one time. Its a disease that attacks the nerves that control movement so muscles no longer work and sadly, is a fatal, rapidly progressing disease for which there is currently no cure.
