This event is ran in association with www.whitecollarboxing.ie

All monies raised will go directly to providing services to people affected by Motor Neurone Disease; an incurable neurological illness leaving people unable to do the everyday things the rest of us take for granted, like walking, talking and swallowing which may become virtually impossible.

The IMNDA is dedicated to providing care for people with Motor Neurone Disease, their carers and families as well as supporting research. As a small organisation the IMNDA relies heavily on fundraising in order to continue providing vital services to the MND community; such as assistance towards home help, provision of specialised equipment on loan and home visiting by an MND Nurse Specialist.
