A TERMINALLY-ill man who has set himself the target of raising £1million for the Motor Neurone Disease Association, will be holding an event tomorrow to help him reach the target. Alan Hedges, 67, and his wife Wendy, are holding a Swimathon from 1pm to 3pm at Darwen Leisure Centre and have asked people to go along and support the swimmers.
Wendy said: “We would like supporters to cheer the participants on. All money raised will go to Motor Neurone Disease Association.”
