The Darby Rimmer Celebrity Golf Day

Jon Darby (The Manor House Golf Club Captain) is hosting a Celebrity Golf Day in aid of The Darby Rimmer Foundation, a charity committed to making a positive impact and contributing to advancing understanding and treatments for Motor Neurone Disease (MND) a neurological condition which affects the nerves in the brain and spinal cord. 

MND affects a person’s arms and legs resulting in the need of a wheelchair whilst losing the ability to do basic things like wash, feed and dress yourself. It affects your ability to swallow food and drink which leads to the need of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostom (PEG) feeding tube, to maintain nutritional intake as swallowing becomes impossible. Your voice is compromised and people are unable to talk meaning communicating is difficult. Breathing muscles are also affected, which leaves you relying on a ventilator to breathe. All these symptoms occur whilst your mind is unaffected.
