Many of you will be aware of the recent passing of Steve Nash. Steve did some great talks for the DSC asking for nothing in return, but to pass a hat around for people to donate to the charity he was supporting; the Wings for Life Spinal Cord Research Foundation.

Wings for Life is dedicated to finding a cure for spinal cord injury and funds world class scientific research & clinical trials aimed at accelerating progress towards this. We can all benefit from the progress made in research, a spinal cord injury could happen to anyone of us. The main causes in daily life are road accidents and falls from height.

In light of the above the committee have decided to donate £100 from club funds in his memory to Wings for Life. If any members wish to supplement this with their own donations, you can donate via Steve’s Red Bull X-Alps 2015 fund raising page https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/RBXA15-TeamGBR or directly to the foundation here https://www.justgiving.com/wflscrf
