Established by rugby legend Doddie Weir to raise funds for research into the possible causes of Motor Neurone Disease & investigate potential cures.

Sophie is particularly keen to support an MND charity for a couple of reasons; George, a wonderful neighbour & keeper suffered during her childhood, and more recently a fabulous friend called Jo sadly succumbed  horribly quickly.
