In memory of my dad - David Budden

By Joel Budden

Help me support MND NSW

I am taking on the Otago Rail Trail Challenge - spending 6 days cycling 150km along the Otago Rail Trail in New Zealand to raise much-needed funds for people living with motor neurone disease. 

There is currently no cure for motor neurone disease (MND), however research has shown some interventions can help people diagnosed with MND to live more comfortably. People who have been diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND) face a multitude of losses during the progression of this incurable and fatal disease. Loss of the ability to move independently or to communicate with people can be minimised through the use of specialised pieces of equipment. Equipment loaned by MND NSW not only improves the quality of life for people with MND but also the quality of life for their carers.

By donating to my challenge to take on the Otago Rail Trail Challenge 2022, you can help MND NSW raise
vital funds to provide essential services, equipment and support for people living with motor neurone disease in NSW, the ACT and NT.

Your support is vital, so MND NSW can continue to be there for people living with motor neurone disease at every stage of their MND journey.

So sad to hear the news about Dave’s passing. He was such a special man, and even though him and your Mum only stayed for few days with us, we fell in love with them both. All our love The Prescott Family 💕
