Bishops Lent Appeal 2018
I have decided that this year’s Appeal will be for MND Scotland in memory of our
late Diocesan Secretary, Chris Zochowski who died from Motor Neurone
Disease earlier this year.
The Appeal will be launched at this year’s Synod at Kilmarnock on 3 rd March.
In 1981, MND Scotland was founded by John Macleod, a 32-year-old
Strathclyde police officer, who had Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Together
with his wife, Peigi,
their family and
friends, they started
the charity to help
those with MND in
Scotland.
At the time John was
diagnosed, services
were limited, and
health professionals
had little or no knowledge of the condition. John’s aim was to help change this
and the Scottish Motor Neurone Disease Association was born.
