Congratulations to Sally Roberts who successfully navigated 1,700 miles and a global pandemic to complete her marathon "WalkWithMe4MND challenge". Sally arrived at Salisbury Cathedral School on Monday after an epic walk from her home in the Algarve, all the way through Portugal and France in memory of her brother, Andrew Brown, who died of motor neuron disease.

Sally was accompanied by a series of friends and supporters during the walk and her beloved dogs.

Friends and family walked the last few miles of the journey with Sally and celebrated together in the beautiful grounds of Salisbury Cathedral School before attending Evensong at the magnificent cathedral.

Foundation CEO, Jill Douglas, was there to welcome Sally at the end of her amazing challenge and was able to give everyone an update on the Foundation's activity and thank them for their ongoing support.

Sally has raised in excess of £25,000 for the Foundation and her fundraising and awareness activities continue!
