Rosie Carmichael - Motoron Cymru
Name: Rosie Carmichael

Charity: Motoron Cymru.
What: Bike ride Chepstow to Bangor
When: 18 – 21 June
Why: I will shortly be retiring from CCC, and to mark this I am joining friends to cycle from Chepstow to Bangor. I am doing this to support Motoron Cymru, a charity which has grown out of Carmarthenshire. It works closely with the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation based in Scotland, which funds research and raises awareness of MND, helping anyone touched by the disease. It is estimated that 1 in 300 people will be diagnosed with MND, so you are very likely to know or meet someone with, or impacted by the disease. You can find out more about MND and Motoron Cymru here: https://motoron.cymru
