Well Done Team Muir!
Derek Slack Motors are Proud to support Team Muir in their fundraising for Motor Neurone Disease Association
On Sunday 3rd August Ruth Thompson and Team Muir completed a North Yorkshire Half Iron Man with a twist…
Ruth’s sister Cath was diagnosed with MND 10 years ago and since her diagnosis they have completed a number of challenges together for the MND Association. This challenge involved Cath putting her full trust in Ruth whilst facing her fear of water!
3 Modes of Transport - The first - a 1.5 mile swim at Ellerton Lakes where Ruth pulled Cath in a kayak. Not far unless you can’t swim and are scared of water (like Cath is!). Ruth then set off on a 56 mile cycle with Cath in tow from Ellerton to Eppelby via Catterick Village and Northallerton. They finished with a half marathon pushing Cath in her wheelchair in Eppleby Village around Cath’s famous village walk route.
Cath is a fundraiser, local group member and campaigner for the MND Association who has raised over £100,000. All funds raised for the Hambleton and Richmondshire Group who support local people with MND, as well as funding research.
Derek Slack motors would like to extend a big thank you to our wonderful customers, who helped us to raise £250 for this worthwhile cause.
