Balfour and Manson selects My Name’5 Doddie Foundation as 2020 charity partner
Balfour and Manson has announced that the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation has been selected as its 2020 charity partner.
The foundation was launched in 2017 after Doddie Weir, one of Scottish Rugby’s most recognisable and larger-than-life personalities, revealed he was suffering from Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
My Name’5 Doddie Foundation aims to raise funds to aid research into the causes of MND and investigate potential cures. It also makes grants to individuals suffering from the disease, to help them live as fulfilling a life as possible.
Balfour and Manson chairman Elaine Motion said: “Each year we ask staff to vote for our charity partner and I’m delighted that we have chosen to support the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. The Foundation is already doing some incredible work to help improve the lives of those affected by Motor Neurone Disease, and we’re looking forward to see how we can support this over the next year.”
