The MND Beast Challenge is heading home to Mount Gambier, and we’re getting together for one final mainland fundraiser to welcome Nigel back and raise some more money for FightMND.
​
Join us at the North Gambier Football Club for a fun Quiz Night. Grab your mates, work crew or family, put together a table and come along for a great night supporting an incredibly important cause.
​
For Hannah and Steve Witherow from Tabeel Trading, the fight against MND is deeply personal. Their family lost their much-loved mum and wife to Motor Neurone Disease.
​
Through their work in the tinber industry in the Green Triangle, Hannah and Steve also work with Nigel and the team at Komatsu Forest. So when Nigel told them he was planning to ride around Australia to raise funds and awareness for FightMND, they wanted to get behind him and help make a difference.
​
"MND has touched too many families, including families within our own timber industry community. This night is a chance to come together, have some fun and help raise much-needed funds for MND research. The timing couldn’t be better. Nigel will be finishing the mainland leg of his lap of Australia, so we’ll also be welcoming him back to Mount Gambier after one hell of a ride." - HannahÂ
​
Bring a team. Bring a table. Bring your competitive streak. Stay for dinner.

Come along, have a great night and help us get behind Nigel and the fight against MND.
One Man. One Bike. One Fight.
