The Isle of Wight branch of the Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association is proud to announce their 13th annual ‘Mum’s Memory Day’ event will be held on Sunday 12th March 2017 at Northwood House, Ward Avenue, West Cowes, Isle of Wight PO31 8AZ.

This Antiques and Collectors Fair is in loving memory of Mavis Summerfield who died of MND in March 2002. Her two daughters (Doreen and Jennie) both living on the Isle of Wight, organise this annual tribute to raise much needed funds for the Isle of Wight branch to help local people living with MND.

Jennie Lewis, Chair of the IOW Branch, commented ‘We look forward to welcoming supporters past, present and future to this important fund-raising event for the IOW Branch of MND. The beautiful setting of Northwood House is the perfect location for an Antiques Fair and visitors can be sure of finding an interesting mix of goods for sale’.

Doreen added ‘As there has been so much publicity recently about MND, we are sure more and more people are becoming aware of this awful disease and how indiscriminately it affects people in all walks of life, so please do help us to continue to raise funds to support local people and their families who are currently living with MND.
