Thank you for visiting our fundraising page, we are overwhelmed by the outpouring of support so far. This will go a long way to providing services to patients. In October 2023 our dad, Peter Hickey, was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease. We were shocked, worried and clueless. Along came Fidelma a wonderful nurse from the IMNDA, whose empathy, understanding and knowledge was exactly what our family needed. We have decided to take part in the Great Limerick Run to raise funds and awareness for this vital service, which relies hugely on fundraising, to ensure anybody else diagnosed with this disease can access the support we had when they need it. If you can donate or if you would like to join us run, walk or crawl on the day we would love your support. If you can help to promote this page, we would greatly appreciate it. You can share our page on any social media platforms using the social sharing sections. Your support is really appreciated. Thank you. The Hickey Family.
