Community Event – Run for Rossy
Run for Rossy is a fundraiser for the charity, FightMND.
Chris Ross, one of the founders of Run for Rossy, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) at 31 years old. Unfortunately, MND has no effective treatment or cure and the average life expectancy from diagnosis is only 27 months.
Chris Ross and two of his friends decided to create a community fundraising event called Run for Rossy. Their aim is to have people run, walk or doing anything physical and as a group, total 2700km! With all funds raised going to FightMND to invest in medical research to find a cure for MND.
The event is being held on Sunday 23rd of October at a local venue, Collingwood Harriers Athletic Club.
There are lots of activities for the whole family to do, please see attached flyer.
