Andy Sambrook of NSD Runners is Raising Money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association





















On Thursday, the 13th of November, Andy Sambrook, of the Upchurch running group NSD Runners, is attempting to run 170 miles to raise money for the local Mid Kent Branch of the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

It’s a charity close to his heart, as his uncle, Allan Blagden, passed away over 20 years ago from the disease. Since then, his auntie, Linda Blagden, has been volunteering to support MNDA and is now fighting her own health battles, but has continued to volunteer throughout.

So if you can, please sponsor him towards this great cause, that would be greatly appreciated!

Please visit Andy's JustGiving page to donate:


To cover the 170 miles, he’s going to be running 5 mile loops (day time) and 2 mile loops (night time) of Upchurch until the 170 miles is complete.

So if you see Andy, or any of the NSD Runners, running through the village from 13th - 15th November, please cheer them on.

There will be a tracker and a link for his progress towards the target of 170 miles that will be shared closer to the day.

Thanks all in advance!

Cheers,

Andy
