Steve’s heart, courage and generosity truly strengthened our community. His actions ripple outward, touching families, volunteers, staff and everyone who met him.
Steve’s journey with MND began in 2021, yet from the outset, he made a conscious choice to direct his energy not only toward his own experience but also to helping others. In the face of immense personal challenge, Steve became a powerful supporter of the Association, a determined advocate and an inspiration to many.
Steve's willingness to share his story has been equally powerful. He let people into his world, offering not only his experience but also his humour, hope and remarkable resilience.
Steve was an active member of our MND community. He was a great supporter of the Association, and an inspiration to all. Steve took part in events with a level of courage that left us in awe, including completing a skydive that not only raised vital funds but also created a wave of awareness and community spirit. He demonstrated that even the boldest acts are possible when driven by a sense of purpose. In 2025 he was presented the Eleanor Mounsher Award, recognising his broad and ongoing contribution.
Perhaps the most lasting memory of Steve is the way he made others feel. He brought a sense of togetherness that strengthened everyone around him. Many describe Steve as inspiring, others describe him as unforgettable. Everyone agrees that he was an absolute legend.
We hold Steve’s family and friends in our thoughts as we recognise a person whose contribution to the MND community has been outstanding and whose legacy will continue long into the future.
