The Big Silence!
Mon 21 Jun 2021 10:30 AM - 11:00 AM BST
Your School!
Description
To recognise world Motor Neurone Disease Day on June 21st we are inviting your school to take part in a sponsored silence during your morning break time.
80% of people living with MND will at some stage lose their voice, and it is for this reason we are using a sponsored silence to raise awareness of this cruel disease which still has no cure.
To take part, simply register you school and we will send you a sponsorship form for your pupils to download. Please note, we will require one person from your school to collect all donations and send through as one payment to Challenging MND.
WIN A MOUNTAIN BIKE!
We are
so grateful for all the support we receive ALL fundraisers in the Big Silence will go into a draw to WIN A MOUNTAIN BIKE.
On June 21st we will enter every participating school into a draw, and once the school is drawn out, we will then ask them to draw a name from all their participating pupils.
Through our charity, Challenging MND, all monies raised will go to assisting people living with MND to create lasting memorable experiences with their friends and family.
MND is a cruel progressive disease which eventually shuts the body down, but the mind remains strong. By being able to provide incredible memories for our beneficiaries and their families, we feel we are adding invaluable quality to their lives together; a fantastic morale boost; and shift their focus to something more positive.
Many thanks,
The Challenging MND Team
