I’m taking on the challenge of running my very first half marathon, and I’m doing it in memory of my grandad, who sadly passed away after battling Motor Neurone Disease (MND). This has been a cause close to my heart, and I’m determined to raise both awareness and funds to help those affected by this illness.

MND Association provides vital support for those living with MND and funds essential research into finding a cure.
