Ben Crabbe, Associate Director and Financial Planner at BRI Wealth Management plc, is leading a series of fundraising events in support of The Matt Gallagher Foundation, which helps people living with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) and their families.
The first event, a charity golf day held at Gaudet Luce Golf & Leisure Complex in Droitwich, brought together 21 teams for a day of competition and community spirit. The event raised £3,600 for the foundation, a testament to the generosity of everyone who took part.
Ben commented: “I’ve been a lifelong rugby supporter, so The Matt Gallagher Foundation is a charity that really resonates with me. Rugby has such strong roots across the West Midlands, and it has been fantastic to see colleagues, clients, friends and the wider community come together to support a cause that makes a real difference to people living with MND.”
Ben’s fundraising efforts will continue later this year with a quiz night in Worcester and participation in inflatable obstacle runs in Cheltenham and Coventry, giving colleagues, clients, friends and family plenty of opportunities to get involved, have fun and support a meaningful cause. The aim is not only to raise funds, but also awareness of MND and the work of the foundation, which was created to provide practical help and support to those affected by the disease.
