Ferndown golf day raises £3,000 for MND

Danny Fudge-Harman’s MND Mission took place at Ferndown Forest Golf Club, raising for Forest Holme Hospice Charity.

Danny Fudge-Harman, who was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in 2013 at the age of 36, delivered a cheque for £3,000 to Forest Holme Hospice Charity.

The money was raised at an annual charity Golf Day organised by Danny’s MND Mission at Ferndown Forest Golf Club.

The Golf Day, sponsored by Stonehaven Homes, brought together 18 teams for a memorable event filled with golf, generosity, and community spirit.

Since his diagnosis, Fudge-Harman has become a passionate advocate for MND awareness and fundraising. Through his mission, he continues to raise money and awareness to support those affected by the disease.

Forest Holme Hospice Charity holds a deeply personal connection for Fudge-Harman, as it part-funds an MND co-ordinator who has provided holistic support and guidance to him and his family.

Fudge-Harman said: “It means the world to me to see so many people come together not just for a day of golf, but to support the fight against MND. Forest Holme has been there for me and my family in ways I can never repay, so being able to give something back is incredibly important. This mission isn’t just about raising money — it’s about raising hope.”

Kirsty Perks, fundraiser at Forest Holme Hospice Charity, said “We are incredibly grateful to Danny for his continued support and generosity. His strength, determination and kindness in the face of such a challenging diagnosis is truly inspiring. The funds raised from the golf day will go a long way in helping us provide vital support to other local people affected by MND and their families. We’re proud to work alongside Danny and his foundation to make a real difference.”
