Good wishes from Professor Pam Shaw
Director of the Care and Research Centre for Motor Neurone Disease, University of Sheffield
It is such an honour that Don and his brave crew have chosen the Sheffield Institute for MND as the charitable cause that they are going to support from the Talisker Bounty Boat Expedition.
May the good forces of the Universe keep you all safe and well and your spirits high during your amazing adventure. The Sheffield MND Care and Research teams will be thinking about you every day and rooting for you every mile of the journey.
Your strength and courage which will be mustered to help those robbed of their strength by the devastating illness that is MND, are inspirational. The endurance and hardship of your journey will be turned to tremendous benefit for the victims of one of the worst diseases in medicine.
At the end of this adventure you will have wonderful stories to inspire your grandchildren
and I hope a warm glow of pride at the good in the world you will have achieved.
We are so grateful to you for your support and for sending this beacon out to call for support for research into MND and related conditions.
Good luck and God speed.
Warmest regards
Pam
