When the remarkable Fr. Tony Coote did his extraordinary walk last year from Donegal to Cork – some 550 kilometers – he raised over €600,000! The proceeds were split between the IMNDA and Research Motor Neurone. From these miraculous funds, we were able to employ a fourth nurse. On the 14th of September 2019, we walked in Fr. Tony’s memory.
Fr. Tony very sadly passed away on 28th August 2019, but his wonderful legacy of action and inspiration will continue to live on.
On the 14th September, over a 1,000 people took part in our Walk While You Can 5K in Phoenix Park. The response was phenomenal. A huge thank you for taking part, your donations and your continued support.
We still want people from all over Ireland to help keep the pilgrimage alive and continue the fundraising fight that Fr. Tony started. Walk Packs are available if you would like to organise your own walk on a date that suits you in your local area. It can be as big or as small as you like!

Remember hope starts with one step, change happens with many.
